Quote: Trust me, she tries!!! Lol. And thanks to everyone who has responded. She has been adjusting very well, and has spent the last two days walking in and out of the house through a cat door i installed in the back door. My back door opens directly into my chicken run, so she just pops in...

Hi there! I was excited to see the Marans so far up on the thread. I came across a breeder who has several young hens for sale, and was thinking of adding a few of them to my flock. I cannot seem to find too much info about them. My main concerns...do they get along well with RIR's? And are...

now i know what to do with all those tomatoes in my garden that keep falling off the vine before i can get to em!!

The only image i get when i hear "poultry" and "electric" in the same sentence is fried chicken. HORRIBLE, i know, but my dad used to keep my dog in an electric fence and it malfunctioned and she passed away from it. Never heard of a poultry net though...hm..

Thank you for all of the replies! Yes, she is alone (i became a chicken mom quite suddenly and unexpectedly.)...although i plan to get her some hen friends soon. I was thinking about the mister, and keeping the ground wet. The humidity is already so bad however, i'm not sure if it would help in...

My little hen has been in the house for about six days now, but has been outside for several hours each day. I finished her small, makeshift run yesterday, and placed her in it last night. She took right to the nest box and i shut her in for the night. I am in Mississippi, and it gets really...

I recently acquired a single RIR. I am looking to get her a few HEN friends in the next two weeks, and am looking for three or four 10-12 week old hens. I do not think it matters if they are RIR's or not, but i am looking for a good breeder or hatchery or even a hobby hatcher that has healthy...

Brand new chicken owner here, someone told me that i need to worm her once a month? Also, should i have her on any other medicines? She is about ten weeks old. Thanks!

Thank you all for your replies and warm welcome! She had cheese (took the suggestion!) and some mealworms i have for my lizard this morning. She is actually following me around the house. I was searching craigslist and found tons of chickens for a very low cost. Is there anything i should look...

This may not help you now, but in the future it will!! I have also experienced what you did, and after that i began storing all of my pictures and writing on an SD card, or a USB drive (they can be bought for as little as ten bucks at wal-mart). With big enough USB drives, you can store...

Hi All!! Jackson MS here. Only one RIR hen, five kitties, three dogs, pet rats, two ferrets, a bunny, and a turtle. I just posted on the new introductions page as to how i came by a chicken, its the big desperate one asking for help!! Lol Nice to see other chicken folks.

Hi Chicken Folk! I have always been interested in chickens as pets, but have recently been researching raising ducks instead. However...three days ago, a chicken found me. I live smack dab in the middle of Jackson Mississippi...woke up and went outside that morning, and there was a little red...
