    Hawk killed my chicken, what now?

    Thanks! I'm also hoping it will deter the hawk from coming back if his meal will be stolen from him haha

    Hawk killed my chicken, what now?

    Thanks do much. You were right it wasn't much meat under all those feathers. I did pluck simply because it was my first time and I wanted to try it. I ended up cutting a lot of the skin off where the talons had cut into it's back. I think scraping the lungs ended up being the most tedious part...

    Hawk killed my chicken, what now?

    Around 4 pm on Christmas my 12 week old barred rock hen was killed by a hawk. I got there just in time to scare him off but he was headless, officially dead. I put the carcass in a bucket after making sure the rest of the flock was safe (they were out foraging). The hawk followed me as I carried...

    chickens are not allowed in Worcester,MA

    @ teaser, I've heard the same thing from worcester workers saying they're illegal but with nothing backing it up. The police even came to my neighbor's door and told him he couldn't have chickens. They didn't do any further investigating though so they must not care too much!

    Breed anyone?

    #5 (Sunshine) I think she's a he but only because her tail feathers are so much longer than #4's I got them all together but they could've been a few weeks apart in age.

    Breed anyone?

    Yes I'm going to try to get some good shots of each of them. They are full of energy and won't pose for me as much as I would like. Most of the shots I got were from stealing still frames from the videos. Not as good quality though. Hopefully it'll be a little warmer tomorrow so I can hang out...

    Breed anyone?

    Just as I suspected. I think four out of six have pointy neck feathers. I was just hoping it was my imagination :(

    Breed anyone?

    Great thanks guys :) I've realized how tough it is to get rid of roosters so I'm not going to buy chicks again until I move to the country of course! Hopefully a few will be hens! Fingers crossed!

    Breed anyone?

    I bought 6 chicks, one he told me was polish and I'm not sure of the other 5. They all look pretty similar so I'm assuming they are all the same breed or maybe a mix of some kind? Also I'm thinking the one with the curly tail is a roo! Let me know what you think. Thank...
