I just wanted to warn everyone that a dog will climb a fence and you better have a good top on your run. I lost all of my flock Friday to a couple of dogs while I was at work. They ate most of my Roo but just killed the hens. So be forewarned all of you using deer netting or nylon netting for...
Not sure if this is the right forum, but thought I would let everyone know about this!
Has anyone else tried the ABATE XP for the smell in their coops?
I bought some a while back and had never used it until last weekend. It takes about 1/2 teaspoon for a pint of water. Now remember I just have...
My one Roo Buddy that I am trying to find a new home follows me back to the house every morning.I have never really given him treats or anything like that. Trying not to get attached to him, mine are mainly pets.
When I pull up of the evenings, here he comes running. And he is making noises...
I received this rooster from someone else, he is not aggressive towards me at all. But he tries to kill my silkie everytime he sees her. Has anyone had a problem like this before?

Is this enough room for them?
I was wondering how hard was it to hook a computer fan to the sloar panel and where do I get the parts. I am a little slow about things like this, but would like to try it on my little 4x4 house that I have now!
Thanks for any help you can provide!
How many hens do you need to keep a silkie roo happy, and not have him love them to death. Is it the same as most breeds? Are would he be happy with two or three? I do realize it would probably depend on the personality etc of the Roo, but does anyone have experience with this breed?
I have a rooster that I need to get rid of. I have a silkie hen and a cochin hen that are nothing but pets, but am afraid that when they get to breeding age he will hurt the silkie trying to mate her. I am in Maryville, TN. But might possibly meet someone if they are not too far away. He is a...
