    Can it be OK to have just one chicken as a pet?

    Thank you so much for your reply....I just don't want her being lonely, I can't be out there 24/7 with her and I'm debating whether to stay with me or if having a new hen family would be better

    I have a question I lost a hen yesterday and now I'm down to one....she's lonely. Would it be best to find someone with hens to adopt her?

    What did you give your chickies today?

    Wow...I'm reading the variety and can't believe my eyes! I'm new to the world of chickens and like with every new experience am very hesitant on what to feed my girls for snacks and how much! I hear if they get too many snacks they won't eat their feed. I've been giving them cooked oatmeal (...

    Awwwww...I'm jealous about the way kitty lets you hold her :( I have 4 black australorpes , and altough they are all sisters, "Baby" and" Ella" hang together and" Evil" and "Crow" are buddies....it's funny how they have their preferences of who to befriend just like people....They are beautiful...

    Hi! New member from CT.

    Wow! You have a flock and a half! Wish I had room for more...as it is, in my town we aren't even supposed to have chickens... and what I say to that is ~~~BAWK ~~~~~........the neighbors know we have them and they love the fresh eggs!

    Hi! New member from CT.

    Thanks for the info....but I don't know the amount of calories the average chicken needs or how many calories are in their feed! I bought a small acorn squash so I will see if they like that before I give them a whole pumpkin, lol....I might save that for a pie for thanksgiving....thanks again.

    Connecticut!

    I'm sorry...I'd freak if I lost any..I'm in Plainville and have 4 black australorpes...7 months old....mine did fine...I'm new to this chicken thing and if your coop is secure, it sounds like maybe they got spooked and went after each other.
