Thanks! Will cut closer on both wings then and see what happens...

Hey, we have just bought 6 turkeys and after a few days they thought they'd like to fly on top of the turkey house, so I looked up how to clip their wings...didn't really know exactly how to do it but had a go, didn't want to cut the feathers too far down as I read they can bleed, next day or so...

Hey, one of our chickens insists on eating chicken poo?? She pecks it off the others feathers and has once eaten it off the ground, none of the others do it, just this one. She is quite nervous and seems a bit dimmer than the others, she does get bullied a bit but she never has lack of food, she...

Hey, well, still not sure which chicken it was but they all are absolutely fine, just looking at me like ''what you staring at...?'' making chicken-y noises and stuff If it was some internal thing wouldn't they be in pain or something?!? All natural chicken nugget, so true...that's probably...

The inside is quite hollow, with meat and tissue crossing around inside and a load of runny goo came out, it feels just like rubber! Don't know about protein, they are free range, so they get bugs, grass, herbs, baby frogs, anything they fancy, and we get layers pellets from the market where we...

Hey, went to look for eggs today and Henrie was in the nestbox. Felt under and there was one egg (hers) and it felt sticky so I lifted her up and there was...something...underneath. There was white and yolk, like there was a broken egg, and this strange thing that felt a bit like rubber...

Okay, thankyou everyone, that's great! I shall have to change my name now...xD Yeah we get eggs everyday, we've had them for about a year and I think there was only one day when we didn't get any but most days we get four! I'll put a photo of Barbara (;]) on from when she was broody, she looks...

Hey... We got our chickens at our market (in France) and they don't tell you the breeds, they just have black chickens, brown chickens, guinea fowl and turkey, etc... I had a look on wikipedia and google and the like and thought they looked most like copper black marans or black copper marans...

Hiya, forgot about it lately but I just came on to check this, so thought I'd have another look... Googled it and it had this: ''If something makes them feel ill they quickly learn to stop eating it. (so long as it isn't so poisonous it kills them outright, but I've not come across anything...

Hey, We are just planting some laburnums and have free range chickens, so, wondered if A: they would eat the seeds or if they have some kind of instinct against it and B: would it harm/kill them or is it different for birds...? Any advice or opinions would be very welcome! Thanks... :]

Yeah, same with us Jena, we knew there were foxes, but actually seeing one, we have been extra careful, putting them in earlier and out later and we are usually always in and out, most of the time to check up on them and if you so much as go to pull up a carrot they charge over to get what they...

Hiya, Just wondered for any tips... we have 4 copper black marans and they range all over the garden (3 acres) and we try to get them back from the woods as much as possible, but they are very determined! Lovely girlies anyway. We have a run, fence approx. 2.1 metres high and digs down and out...

Hello, we're new to this, discovered this forum when one of our chickens developed bubbling liquid and then a swollen eye. At first we panicked reading about CRD, but fortunately, acting on advice of an elderly gentleman and long time chicken expert who suggested it was just dust in the eye from...
