My dog killed our best bird and injured one . It is really hard for me because I love my dog even though it breaks my heart not to see Barry, (my barred rock hen) there anymore. So we are trying to figure out what to do. She killed three so far, one got killed by a owl two died from sicknesses...
I have had robins making nests under our deck which is in the pool area for 4 yrs. My dad took down the nest it made the second year, but my sister and I begged him not to so he hasn't done it yet. So a robin made her nest where she usually does and laid four beautiful eggs. Yet I am very...

Anyone like Warrior cats? I love them! I am on Fire and Ice right now. What book are you on? What's your favorite warrior? Mine is...so far Cinder paw. She is super cool! I am not going to say anymore lest I spoil the rest of the book for anyone. What about warrior cats do you like?
When you think of a poodle do you think of an ugly dog? Well to tell you the truth...that is totally wrong! People give poodle ugly cuts, I give mine a normal puppy cut, I will try to get a picture. We have a poodle and his name is Freddy and he is so smart! We got him at eight weeks and he...
Hi, I recently just got chicks and I don't know how to socialize them. I tried holding them but they squirm and cry. What do I do? I don't want them to turn out like our other chickens,they aren't very friendly.
Hi, We have just gotten ten little chicks! I am looking for names for my speckled Sussex, they are supposed to be sweet tempered and very lovey. I really want a good name for her, something cute. Thank you.
This week is different above all other weeks. Yesterday I got my braces off (I am using my mom's account) and-----we get chicks. On Tuesday. How could we forget. So promptly during a Monday night near 7:00, we drag a heavy green coop that was no longer in use using a four-wheeler. The grass...
My Pastor owns chickens and has decided to hatch some eggs, and four are roosters. My pastor wants to give one to me, and I do not own any roosters at the moment. The rooster is a Rhode Island Red. (RIR) They have a reputaion of being particularly nasty, and I am not sure. I would like to...
(yes its me again)
I have isolated a chicken from my flock because it has a runny eye and sneezes. Walnut was absolutely crazy when I tried to catch her (that is after de-freezing the lock on their pen) and she has now calmed down after I filled a dog crate with shavings and a perch...
Yesterday I was dolling out the usual scratch grain rations when I noticed a strange seed. I didn't think much of it at the time, but after I found more, I knew it wasn't a mistake. It was a soy seed. Now, this wouldn't be such a problem if I hadn't started raising my own chickens to get away...
One day ago (1/16/13), one of our hens named Fudge was limping badly. We are not sure if her leg is broken or not, but she will not get up and Fudge is constanly asleep. We give her water by dipping our fingers in a cup and showing her the droplets, but she is rapidly declining. We have tried to...
