    Broody Had Secret Nest

    When deep-cleaning our coop, we noticed that one of the hens had started a nest. We cleared this nest out but we didn't realize she had stolen other eggs and had a secret nest. We have a few small dog houses in our chicken coop or chicken shed. She had stolen a bantam egg and a couple regular...

    2 Chickens Dumped - What are they? Pic Heavy

    I inherited these two chickens from a neighbor kid. He hatched them for a science project. He had no idea what breed they were and said they are about a week old. I was thinking maybe Cornish X? These are 1 week old and nearly the size of my 4 week old barred rocks.

    Stalker Chicken

    I have an Australorp hen that has decided to sit on eggs. She isn't broody...at least I don't think she is. She follows the other hens around until they have an egg and then pushes them off so she can sit on it. She only sits for a few minutes before getting up and walking away. She also...

    Why Do They Kill Birds?

    My chickens are killing wild birds. I have a freeloading barn cat that I thought had started killing birds. I keep finding them in the yard. I haven't seen her run/move in quite some time so I didn't think it was her, but didn't have anyone else to blame. Today I saw it with my own eyes...

    My girls treated themselves to Oyster Shell.

    My pullets range in age from 14-20 weeks. In the last few days, some of the girls are singing the egg song, others are practicing in the nest box, others are squatting. I went and bought some layer feed and a bag of Oyster Shell. I put the Oyster Shell in the barn-on a shelf. My girls...

    The Sky Is Falling!

    A dog invaded my chickens space last week. Since then, they've been so cautious! It reminds me of an action movie where the characters are running for cover because they're being shot at. My chickens look before running out of the coop. If all is clear, they run under the deck. That is...

    Bawwwwkkkkk bok bok and acting strange.

    I'm not quite sure what is up with my Golden Comet girl. She hasn't laid her first egg yet and she could be due anytime. I wasn't given her exact age-but she was a "teenager" when I got her last month. She keeps walking around like she is lost making the bawwwkkkk bok bok and repeating it...

    Homemade Incubator or a Cheapie?

    I'm thinking it might be most cost effective to make an incubator and hatch some eggs. My situation: I only want to add 2 or 3 new chicks to my flock. Shipping that many is almost unheard of and very expensive. Incubators are expensive. I haven't found anything local worth buying. I know...

    Flew into the coop!

    Long story short, I have a Golden Sebright girl that was attacked by a dog. She didn't have any puncture wounds and was shaken but seemed ok. It's been about a week... I've seen her get startled for no apparent reason and fly into things several times since. She just kind of jumps...BOK BOKS...

    Looking for Lav & Buff Orpington Chicks/Pullets

    I would like to add 2-3 chickens to my small flock. I have one Buff Orpington and would like another. I think the Lavender are beautiful and would like one of those or maybe even a Black. I'm also interested in Barred Rock bantams. I live in Milan, IN so I'll need to find someone local or...

    Two Roos Too Many?

    I have an OEGB. He is tiny and adorable. He had an attitude with the ladies and got put in check. My pullets are all standard size but one, so being about 6 times his size, they don't put up with much from him. As young as he is, he seems to understand this and behaves himself. He is about...
