As my girls start aging, I'm finding that some breeds age faster than others. My EE and Delaware are all over the place, laying and living it up, but my RRs are aging quicker it seems. They are all just over 3 years old. Only a couple are still laying, but that's ok, we love our featherbutts...
My poor dude has had what we think is a stroke and although he seems interested in food and water, he isn't able to eat it. My husband and I know that we need to be humane and understand his quality of life and neither of us want to watch him starve to death, but we are wimps. My hubby has PTSD...
My poor tom, Buttercup, seems to have had a stroke. At least, we think so. He was lethargic for a few days, then he started coming back, but now he leans a bit to the left and forgets what he is doing at times. We are loving him and making sure he's cared for. He eats and drinks with no issues...

My poor dude. Two and a half weeks ago he was attacked and left, most likely, for dead by my jerky neighbor and his dogs. WE found him and brought him in, treated his wounds and have had him recuperating. He had a couple punctures and a lot of bruising. We have the wounds healing well, and the...
We had an interesting discovery. We went to collect our eggs from our girls, and we found this smaller brown egg in with the other eggs. All our girls tend to lay in the same spot or the opposite corner of the coop so we always have a pile of eggs.
You can see it in the middle. The one...
Hi everyone.. My name is DL and I have a small-ish flock going in my backyard. We have 10 chickens and two turkeys.
3 blond sexlinks, 3 easter eggers, 2 Rhode Island Reds, 2 Delaware Blondes...we are beginning to believe that one of our EEs has decided to come out and be a rooster. So much...
