How many eggs do they lay annually?

My chickens have already destroyed their grass area so now they just stand in the mud, and since it's winter there's not too many bugs to peck around at. Any ideas on how you keep your flock entertained and happy? I saw a cabbage piñata on Pintrest.. hehe

I saw this picture on the website homepage and the chicken is gorgeous. Anybody know what breed it is?

My eggs smell like sulfur and urine, especially when I cook them... I don't eat these ones because I fear that it will taste like sulfur or that these eggs are contaminated. How do I get rid of this sulfur smell? Are there certain foods I should be giving them to improve the smell? Right now...

Hi, I’m looking for a way to keep my coop clean with such a small space. There’s a gravel flooring, which I sprinkle some hay on top, but so much poop builds up that it becomes a mountain. How do you maintain the cleanliness of your coop? I’ve heard that some people use sand.. looking for any...

Ok!

Do you wash your hands every time after handling your chickens?

anyone else?

I especially want mine to start perching on me. How do I know they’re showing me affection? I think they are

Hi all, I found my chickens just now laying together in a huddle in their run outside. It isn't cold here, and they have food and water. Is this a sign of sickness or are they just being plain ol' lazy right now? They've never done this before and I am a new chicken keeper (and overly...

I know it’s blood, but what could it be from and what can I do to help her? New at this

Where can I buy a Chunnel (chicken tunnel)? I see a lot of diy ones, but I just want to buy one. This picture I found on Amazon is what I want, but they don’t sell it anymore. Anything similar to it?

Rain boots don’t do that to my feet, but since these kind are supposed to snug, they might

This is so sweet (and kind of sad)... I told the story to my family at dinner and they loved it :)

How would I make the feeder hanging? Or would I just have to buy a new one?

Here's a picture from a couple months ago. Where the waterer is is where the dune is developing.. and in the center of the run is the poop mountain.. you can kind of already see the dune forming on the right side where the feeder is. It's a lot worse now

It's dark outside where I live now, I could try to take a picture on flash though

YOU GUYS! I found the most amazing rainboots at the co-op. You see the boots that are in my profile picture? I thought they were cute, but heck who would sell those? Well they do and I found them for 25% off!! And they were so comfy. But spoiler! My Mom already bought them for me for Christmas...

Hi all, My waterer and feeder keep falling over because the chickens knock them over. I can't put it in the corner because in the middle of the run, so much poop has accumulated that it's like a mini hill ("hill" is quite an exaggeration, best word I can think of) and the corners are dunes...

Thanks everyone :) the warm bath seemed to do the trick. I gently rubbed it away and then snipped off the poo with some small scissors. It might’ve gotten a feather or two, but this girl is poo-free! For additional precautionaries I put some almond oil on her vent (I heard this prevents poop...
