    Thank you so much guys. Did great last night. Baby chick doing great. Gave food and water today. Left water but brought food in tonight so no predator sniffs it out. She has three more under her that I'm going to give her two more days to see if they hatch. Will move her then with babies

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    Help! I've messed up. My lovely babies free range and thus pick their broody place. Usually it's a safe place. Big red is under my steps and her first baby hatched today. I'm so worried something is going to get the babies at night. If I move her to porch in a crate do you think she will turn...

    Hawks finally did it

    I too have had issues with hawks. I've lost five bantams in all. I would have had a much larger loss if it wasn't for my roosters. I've witnessed them watching out and protecting. You said your wife didn't want one. And let me tell you I understand. I have had three scars from signification...

    Greasy head and dripping face.

    I'm still new at chickens so this is only an observation that seen. I've been dealing with illnesses since I bought some chickens at a flea market. Never do that- they looked healthy but I've had nothing but problems since. Because our chickens are for enjoyment and for my boys to have and see...

    come home to two hens dragging a leg! cannot walk!

    No I didn't because they were fighting me and I didn't have any help. I will try the by mouth option and add vitamins. I just hope they will drink and eat. I cannot possibly syringe feed all of them. Thank you

    Respiratory illness- 2nd night of giving all 24 shots

    My chicken coops sound like a TB clinic!!!! I'm on day two of giving all hens and roosters a Tylan shot. Easter- my sons rooster is in crate on front porch away from others. His eyes and nose had copious drainage. The rest are just congested and wheezing. So far we had to cull four that were...

    Late Introduction!

    Welcome- I'm new here also. But boy has it been helpful. As far as roosters go- I'm like you. I have two large ones and they are very protective of the hens. Downside is they have hurt me three times. I have scars all over my legs. Last one was when I was bending over to put fresh water out and...
