    My chicken died, please help me understand why.

    So its a bit for a story, sorry. My barred rock was attacked by a dog on the 23rd. This was my first chicken injury so forgive my inexperience.

    Hen presented herself to me....eeeewww!

    Ive been calling it a 'sit' but i do enjoy when they do that! So far, only two of mine sit for me which makes it very easy to catch them. Also, sometimes ill scratch them down the spine then squeeze the tail bone a little then they will get up, fluff all their feathers and run off! I find it...

    Can you identify what kind and gender chicken this is?

    i was afraid of that. I suspected it would be a male because of how aggressive it was toward the others. Oh well, ive got a good home lined up for it so itll come out alright.

Past two days its rained while i was letting them out on their trial outdoor time, rather than looking for shelter they just huddle together in...

    I cut 1 3/4 inches off the end and predrilled the holes in the cap. I used 1 5/8" course drywall screws to hold it all together. The second one i made i only cut off 1 1/2 inches to make the food a little deeper and minimize waste even more.
