Well, we lost one of our injured girls. I found her this morning in the dog crate. Lucky (apt name because she's survived attack before) was standing there nervously clucking at me. B put Joey under the Beauty Berry next to Blue and I place Lucky back with the others. She isn't bleeding and...

Hahaha! I meant crazy in that I talk about them and post pictures so much. The crazy that makes me watch my step on the front porch. Anyone else's birds love to bomb the welcome mat?

Thank you for all of your continued responses. This is very therapeutic to post and not be the only "Crazy Chicken Lady". Pretty sure some of my FB friends feel that way about me. lol. I do feel that I could end up looking like Granny Clampett, sitting in my rocking chair on the back porch with...

She was just over last week, so all she had to do was run to the front of the property and come up the driveway. I'm avoiding a conspiracy theory because I don't want to dwell on revenge, and I fear retribution. Our own dog has been a bit of a Houdini before, and though he never hassled their...

To the silkie enthusiasts: how soon can you tell if your pullet will have a nice poofy crest and/or be beardless and/or not poofy? Not exactly sure which of those go together yet.

Flossy is a part of our family and is well loved by my 12 year-old. He will perch on her shoulder or sleep in her lap. We treasure our pretty boy. Also, Lucy, is my personal favorite, so I make sure to handle him regularly and cuddle with him. In case you are wondering about the name, I went...

I am a new member, but I've searched your forums for answers about my flocks for a while. I have a layer flock - Ameraucana, Barred Rock, White Rockies, some mixed breeds - of 12 ladies. No roos. I also have 5 Silkies in various colors and 5 bantams in assorted breeds. We discovered recently...
