We call her "Black Power" she is a 10lb black star and she has our entire flock on lock✌️

I recently had a broody chicken and i placed her in a dog crate with access to food and water. She was kept in the crate for 3 days. This routine seemed to snap her out of the broodiness.

Ok - thank you!

Leaving for a wedding and my 5 girls are going to be cooped up in their run. Considering this being my first time leaving them alone for days. Is there anything else i need to do other than the following: • plenty of food and water supplied • access to their roosting area for sleeping •...

Beautiful! I left the black tray that came with the dog kennel at the bottom. Going out today to upgrade her plastic tray to chicken wire. And she was left in the cage over night. Supplying water and feed. And cleaning up her cage 2 times a day. Planning to take her out monday around noon...

Im pretty sure she is broody - she is not hiding.

I switched to a different feed and i gave the girls some oyster shells today, but they just pecked it out of the tray.

Picking some up tomorrow - thank you!

My layering feed is from a company called modesto mills. How much calcium is considered enough for laying hens?

I have my girls on a soy/corn free organic layer feed. Which seems like to be a well balanced feed. I recently adopted two sex links - 6 months and 10months both laying several times a week. I noticed their shell being thinner than the pullet eggs and their yolks arent as orange. Should i be...
