    Can she be saved - possible coyote attack

    A neighbor thought they saw a large furry dog chasing my chickens just after I left at 7:30am. I lost three hens and this one was in the corner of the coop. She has two large lacerations on her back. One is visible in the picture the other is under left wing. Anyone know if and/or how I can save...

    Help a dog just got my chicken

    After doing some research online I wiped away any loose feathers and cleaned her up. There seems to be just one puncture wound which has stopped bleeding. I had bag balm and applied that to her skin where all her feathers had been plucked and the wound. Ive got her in a dog crate for the night...

    How can I protect eggs from adult black racer(s) ??

    Thanks for all the replies. I think we will be giving the barn a thorough cleaning and set up a trap near the nesting boxes. If he doesn't seem to bother the eggs or chickens then he will get a name like all the other animals that show up :o)

    New Egg without shell

    I found one of these eggs in my coop two weeks ago and then two yesterday. Same idea, its like they layed the egg while on the roost. They were small eggs with no shell. I origially thought it was one of my hens that are just starting to lay but now I'm concerned. I have 9 hens total, they all...

    How can I protect eggs from adult black racer(s) ??

    I came face to face with an adult black racer in the barn today. It was on the feed bucket but I am sure it was seeking out the eggs. My chickens have only been laying for two weeks. I need advice on how to keep them out of the coop and barn. In my basement I use moth balls but I know the...

    Rooster crowing around 4am non stop.

    What would cause this? One of my roosters started crowing around 4am and would not stop. I checked the coop fearing a predator but nothing. They are approx 17 wks old and been crowing and behaving very much like roosters for a while now but never before sunrise. I need to fix this for myself and...

    Help identifying these, breed and gender

    I bought 6 barred rock pullets from the feed store then took my chances with a mix of 8 chicks from a local farmer. I'm afraid 6 or 7 of the 8 are roosters. Since I'm new to this, help identifying all my birds would be great but I'm really unsure when it comes to these two.
