    Thanks everyone! CJkid - he's a mix, we got him from the pound too - I suspect pitbull and something tri-colored. He's as sweet as ever and loving and a great dog.

    Oh! The purple thing in the background of the last picture is actually a squirrel condo. We foster orphaned baby squirrels and release them once they're ready and the condo (bigger than a house, smaller than a farm) is a feeding / shelter location for as long as they need it - which usually...

    My Sweet Peeps

    We're almost to our one year mark of having our chickens in our lives and I have to say it's been a lot of fun. We have 4, but one is very shy and for some reason, runs when I have the camera. ? But the other 3 are actually hard to photograph because every time I get down to chicken level they...

    Chicken Crafts! (Show Off Your Craftiness)

    Here are my chicken crafts: I'd never worked with imitation liquid lead or stained glass paint so I wasn't sure how they'd turn out but I think they are a nice addition to our coop. I did the art pieces, my husband found some old frames which I painted and then he put the chicken art into the...

    Need advice!

    Another update (in case anyone out there is wondering) During the day I spent some quality time with Mabel in the coop a few times a day for a few days in a row. Positive reinforcement. At night she kept going in to the kennel so I carried Mabel out to the coop after the others had gone in and...

    Have any CHICKEN ART!?

    I know this thread is old but I thought I'd add my art anyway. Gotta show somebody! I made fake stained glass art and my husband framed them for our coop. It's the first time I've ever worked with the imitation liquid lead and window color so I wasn't so sure how they'd turn out. Here they...

    An update! Mabel's neck is healed. It looks great and I hope the feathers will grow back at some point :) I ended up keeping her in the kennel alone for 2 nights and then brought our Serama (Phyllis) in to the kennel to hang out at night so Mabel didn't get too lonely. Phyllis is kind of a...

    Need advice!

    Thank you! I'm so sad to lose a chicken, it's the first time it's happened to us (we're new to chicken happiness!) ... I had a thought tonight to get another chicken from the woman that we got the Houdan - maybe she'd like having a chicken from her old home? Do you think they'd remember? Am I...

    Help! Need advice!

    Its been a rough few days at our house. Here's the story (sorry it's a little long) 3 weeks ago I added 2 pullets (a Houdan and a OEG mutt) to our flock, and was introducing them (slowly) to our flock of 3 LF and a Serama (all are 11 months old). There was some pecking, naturally, but they all...
