Thank you so much! I'm thinking of asking my high school's (currently my little brother's high school) carpentry program (its a tech school) to build me a coop. Will give the students something to do and be a good learning experience and will probably cost me very little. If it's too expensive...

Thanks nbenevento! I think I'm just trying to compare my current preparation with my friend's preparation (the one with the chicks) because she has yet to get a coop and doesn't seem to worried about it. I figured having to incubate eggs and whatnot would mean a long ways before the coop stage...

Thank you for your reply! You sound a lot like me research wise (I get that from my dad hahaha). I spend a lot of time doing my homework before I get into any sort of hobby/animal care/etc. I've done bits and pieces of research over these 3 or 4 years, but I've always been unsure of where to...

Hello again :) I first joined this forum last summer when I rescued a chicken that had been attacked by a cat and fell in a pool! She is now happily living with my neighbor and recovered well :D With that being said, I decided about 3 years ago that I wanted to raise and keep chickens whenever...

Thank you! She is standing up in her crate now, which I assume is a good sign? She is no longer twitching or breathing heavy, just resting! http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii298/Wolfie305/chicken2_zps6927e35a.png She took a tiny bit of water, but I'll pick up some cat food and do the egg...

Thank you so much for posting! I've been doing just that so far, so I'll continue to let her be. Do you think I should turn on any lamps or something near her crate? It's quite cold today here in MA and while the garage is warmer, I'm not sure if it's warm enough..

Hello everyone, I'm sure you get these posts all the time, but I'm in need of some help! My brother's friend posted on Facebook this morning saying that an injured chicken was limping around his pool area and he needed help catching it. I love all animals and I have a little soft spot for...
