    best dog breed around chickens?

    An adult mutt is NOT the best dog for chickens. My dog killed 20 of my chickens. He isn't my dog anymore. He lives elsewhere now.

    Cathy has Diarrhea and is Lethargic, but IS Eating

    Hi all, I was hoping you could give me some advice. I have a, what I think is a Jersey Giant, maybe a Black Maran? Her name is Cathy, she is the one in the middle, her sister is Patty, the one in the forefront. I got her last September as an adult. She is very lethargic and sleeping a lot. She...

    Review by '' on item 'Wyandotte'

    Gentle, loving, and perch on my hand. They are so smart. They wait for me to put them to bed and chatter and give me little beak kisses...not kidding. When they get out of the chicken run all I have to do is open the door to the run and say, "get back in your run" and they go, no hassle or fuss...

    Polish crested rooster? More like Polish crusted... :-(

    I saw this post today and wondered can Poultry lice do this to a polish crested's head? None of the other chickens have lice, I checked them all, Only this guy. He is now quarantined and been fully dusted with DE. However, could this be why he is losing his feathers or do you think it is the...

    Help, Please! Injured and Pecked Polish Rooster! (Edit- Graphic-ish Pictures)

    I am sorry to hear about your loss. I came by this thread because my polish crested was part of a package deal for new adult hens. This rooster is CRAZY. He is also missing most of his feathers and the hens aren't helping, but he hasn't been harmed like your poor guy was. Lately, he has become...

    Girly Hurley Lost her chickens

    When I come back from visiting my Mom and Sister we will rebuild our coop with reinforcements. A buddy of ours is going to help us find more chickens and I am going to work with the dog to train him to leave the chickens alone. I shoulder the blame for this happening because I didn't properly...

    my dog killed my chickens

    Yeah, I think we figured out our coop didn't work. It was our first coop and the chicken wire was pulled apart and pawed through. They were NOT roaming. The dog got off his chain and got the chickens. He buried two, left one in the path for us and was eating the meat from my beautiful Welsummer...

    my dog killed my chickens

    It took everything in me to remember he is a critter dog. Killing critters is what he does...but still it was hard. All 4 layers gone. We left for 2.5 hours to watch a movie. We didn't process the chickens. Maybe we should have. They had been dead for hours in the heat and flies on them. What...

    Girly Hurley Lost her chickens

    I am so heart broken. My dog got off his chain and killed every one of my chickens. It took everything in me to remind myself it is just a dog's nature. Anyway. We are gonna reinforce the cage and maybe build another plan for a different space for added protection. Just felt like sharing our...

    gurlyhurley has CHICKENS!

    Hi all, Just got Chickens a few days ago. So excited. Already layers and very happy at that. Spoiled with lots of berries, juicing fiber and non-soy, non-gmo chicken feed. I sing to them in the evenings, well I practice my music while watching them.... but they don't run away...so there is...
