    Please help

    I'm hoping someone can help me because I'm not sure what to do. Last night something got into my coop and killed 10 of my birds. Most of them were decapitated and just left there except one that was dragged behind a box. I checked the coop and found no large holes so I think its something small...

    Can a hen hatch duck eggs?

    Maybe but Daisy has done this before even before I got chickens she'll just abandon her eggs for no reason after a day or so. The orp Goldie didn't sit on the nest until well after dark Daisy hadn't been near it since about 6am

    Can a hen hatch duck eggs?

    This may be a dumb question to more experienced chicken owners but this is my first spring with broody hens. A week ago my duck Daisy began nesting but 4 days ago I saw her out in the field and didn't go back to her nest and that night she ignored her nest and slept with the other ducks so I...

    Sick Silkies

    It got a bit wet so I changed it. Their kind of closed at night I put a wire cover on them at night to keep weasels out. It's just the two hens that are sick my other hen and two roosters are fine along with the other birds that are in with them.

    Hi I need some help figuring out what's wrong with my 18 week old silkie hens. They've stopped eating or drinking are sleeping a lot and are very lethargic. There is no unnatural poops or anything so I'm confused as to what could be causing this.

    Should I be worried

    I've owned my rooster Benny for about two years I got him when he was still a baby and he was so gentle and up until recently has always been. About a week ago he came into the coop while I was cleaning and lightly pecked at my hand. Now my hands were covered in straw so I assumed he was pecking...
