    Rooster and Hen dead

    Thank you. We have another one gone as of an hour ago. We believe this predator is an owl that brown in through the screen of the coop, as it has a rip in it. The chicken we just found was headless with large punctures to the abdomen. We are going to put a camera tomorrow.

    Rooster and Hen dead

    Your compassion is deeply noted... Our "run" area is incredibly large. We do have an area that is covered, but for the entire thing to be would be pointless of giving them a large run in the area that we do. When I asked about this question it was not in the question of judgement on myself, my...

    Rooster and Hen dead

    The run is as secure as we can get for where it is. My thoughts were a hawk and the area is too large to cover the top. Thank you.

    Rooster and Hen dead

    They are all in a very large coop along with a fenced off area. The top is not enclosed. It's fenced off from large predators. My husband was wondering if the rooster did this but with the amount of harm in the hen, I would think a hawk.

    Rooster and Hen dead

    Hi, I have five hens and two roosters. This morning my daughter woke up to find one hen dead and opened to where you could see her insides, and a rooster dead in another area. Although, all of the other chickens seem to be okay we have never had anything like this to happen before. Any ideas...

    Roosting Pole

    My chicks are around 12 weeks old and are still cuddling together on the ground. When should they be going to the roost at night? Do I need to help this transition?

    Fairly New at Being a Crazy Chicken Lady

    Our coop. I should've mentioned that our older hens went to new homes in the fall. We will only be keeping 10 hens from the 15 I have. We only seem to have room for 8-10 in our coop comfortably.

    Fairly New at Being a Crazy Chicken Lady

    Some people love cats, other dogs. Some ladies dress their kids in cute southern boutique wear. Most little girls love horses, and other kids want a Guinea pig just like their school pet. Well, my family and I do it all. But I've simply become the crazy chicken lady of our area thanks to our...

    First Time Chick Owner

    Thank you for letting me know that although our previous girls were old and after speaking with their original owners we decided it was best to not have them right now.

    First Time Chick Owner

    These photos are from April at my daughter's ninth birthday when she received her first hens. They were such beautiful and fun hens to have although all 8 quit laying between July to September, so they are graciously "living happily" with their new Amish families nearby. We have room for 8-10...

    First Time Chick Owner

    Yes, we do have a coop in place and ready for them. We took them off of the lamp last week because our temps in southern Kentucky hit around 70, and it was very warm in the garage. I decided then to leave them off to see how they adjusted. I believe I worry more about them, than they are...
