so I got some chicks 2 weeks ago. I know my hens can hear them as they are in the little coop next to theirs. All of a sudden I have a Broody Hen. I know lots of people sneak Day old chicks under a Broody Hen at night. Since they are older what are the chances this Broody could be moved to...

A couple of days ago I noticed my oldest hen , a white leghorn who is 4 , has a very droopy comb and it looks like it is shriveling up. I haven't been able to catch her to examine her yet. It's not getting better. Obviously not normal but what else should I be looking for? Thanks

My Turkeys have 2 weeks left before they go for their " Hair Cuts " do any of you use " Game and Turkey Finisher and Maintenance Feed " or do you continue feeding their regular grower feed ? I was told at one time to use the Game and Turkey Finisher and Maintenance Feed only if I wanted them to...

I have a 1 yr old White Leghorn Hen that stopped laying a week or so ago. I thought she was Broody because of the NH weather changes. Then her Comb got droopy and she had greenish poop stuck to her butt. I washed it all off twice now and she wasn't clogged up. No lumps in her throat / crop...

In the Spring I was given a Coop that belonged to a Friend of Mine's Father who passed away a few years ago. They were excited to see this coop would be used again. It was solid but very ugly.

I am wondering if anyone has experience using a dog door so the chickens can go in and out of the coop during the winter without having to leave a door open and letting in all the cold NH winter weather ?
