    Silkie Injury?!

    I just got back form vacation and I found mt Silkie Rooster has one of his toes biten off? I can't figure out how it happened. I also can't find a point of entry into the pen.

    I live in Montrose, PA. The dog was eating my chicken when I yelled at it to stop. It then growled at me and I ran back in the house as I was scared. I will call my local dog catcher.

    Freezing Chicken Water in Northern NY

    I live on the NY and PA border. It's been frigid here. My coop is small and heated with a 250 watt red heat lamp yet the water in the coop still freezes. And it also gets full of junk. So I went to agway and got a 3 gallon heated water for the run. Been working like a charm!!!

    Chicks wouldn't go in the coop?!

    They did it again tonight. If they weren't so inaccessible, I could pick them up and place them in the coop.

    infected eye?

    Mine got poop in her eye and it got very swollen and even tore the bottom lid trying to clean her. I placed contact solution and neosporin on it. I also noticed she can't see out of it. I think she was pecked in the eye when she was a mess. She is fine now and looks a lot better.

    Tell me about your chicks.

    I love watching them and seeing how fast they grow. It amazing how beautiful they can turn out to be. I am a newbie and learn something new every day. I pretty much have my routine down to a science. Cleaning the brooder or the coop isn't that bad either. The only thing I hate is no one else...
