    Bare Bottom Chickens

    I would immediately worm them, this will take care of mites, too. Your local feed store will have plenty of choices of wormers, e.g. Ivermectin: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/687442/treating-with-ivermectin http://poultrykeeper.com/poultry-medication/ivermectin-for-worms-lice-mites...

    Advise Please!!! Chick attacked by hawk

    Locally, heating, redness, swelling, pus (though you might have some of that no matter what), systemically, general decline (at which point it might be too late). So far, so good! If you can get extra vitamins and some good yoghurt into her, that might strengthen her immune and overall system...

    Advise Please!!! Chick attacked by hawk

    What larger cities are ROOSTER-friendly in the Western US (or elsewhere)?

But seriously, every community is different and around here, nobody has an issue with a little crowing here and there. So there must be other communities like...

    What larger cities are ROOSTER-friendly in the Western US (or elsewhere)?

    Hi there, we are currently living in Austin, TX, where there are no restrictions on keeping chickens, hens or roosters, as long as they don't make more noise than the neighbours can tolerate. In fact, it seems like many people here love roosters (to a point...)! Our bantam rooster definitely...
