I have a bad raccoon problem (don't have any guns). I've read that coyote urine products help keep them away. My maybe dumb question-does it attract coyotes?

My girls stopped laying for awhile for unknown reasons. Then all of the sudden they started, now they've stopped again. I can't figure out what's going on. It's strange to me that they all do the same thing as far as laying goes. Could it be stress from the ??!!?? raccoons that try to get...

My 12 week olds are mixed and getting along with my 2-5 year olds. They have a separate house. They roost where the "big girls" sleep during the day, but not at night. Just wondering if anyone thinks they'll eventually sleep in the main henhouse (it's small but room enough for them). There...

My girls (8 of them) are not laying at all, maybe one egg a day. They look and act great, no signs of health issues. I let them out to free range and they're active and look fine. I can't imagine that all of them would be eggbound. They go to bed before 5:00 p.m. and aren't up until around...

I have a hen that acts really weird and kind of obnoxious. She rarely has feathers and is pretty small. She will grab food and run all over crazy when no one is even looking at her. She's pretty annoying but I feel so sorry for her. I added five hens to my flock and she tries to hang out...

Sorry if this has been asked and answered. I searched and couldn't find it. I have 13 chickens and only get about 5-6 eggs per day but would like to keep track of what's laid when. I read about the laser deal but that doesn't seem feasible for my small scale. I was numbering egg cartons so I...

Hi-I'm new here but have had chickens for about 2 years. I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to grow grass in containers and which grass would be best. Our altitude is about 9200 so we can't really grow anything in the rock we live on. Thanks!
