This is Flower (like the skunk)! We’re pretty sure he’s the accidental? boy of our new batch of chicks and we adore the goofy little mohawk he’s started sprouting! Since he’s an olive egger we think he’s a cream legbar mix. I might see if I can get some photos of his pals as well, because I...

hi all, our two pekins were eaten the other night - one completely missing and the other torn open and crunched up we set up a game cam to try and get photos in case it came back and left the remaining carcass there, but unfortunately the cam was set a little too far away, so it didn't catch...

>>previous post for context<< in short, all thirty of our birds were killed by something that got into our coop, except for one hen who managed to get away unscathed a small update on that: the fayoumi is doing great, a coworker hooked us up with some hens and the coop has been completely...

something got into our coop last night and slaughtered all but two hens who managed to escape somehow i’m guessing it was a raccoon since the hatch on the back of the coop that opens and allows the birds into their pen was broken as if something heavy but able to climb and small enough to fit...

last night our rooster was found stuck on his back with a low hanging (but still mobile, he’ll pull it back while we’re inspecting the joints there) wing and a limp in one leg, he was also gasping for air and croaking a bit, but seemed to improve after we brought him in the house for a while he...

dunno if this is the right place to post this but we’re just really confused and want to figure this out so all of our pekins were happy and healthy yesterday and equally as peppy when they went into their duck house last night, but this morning when we let them out one of them was just...

we hatched thirteen eggs this summer and about five or six of the chicks have started growing their saddle feathers, which means they have to go :< they are all mixed breed, fathered by a columbian wyandotte, golden laced wyandotte, and a black sumatra/CW mix we rehomed earlier this year buff...

I have a three month old easter egger who has been doing this odd thing where she opens her mouth by moving her upper beak? It's like a yawn but very uncanny looking, and I'm not sure if it's nothing or if she's hurt (I've felt around her face and jaw and nothing seems out of place but it still...

Big Guy was hatched last spring and has been a great addition to our flock. In addition to being fun to look at with his fancy iridescent black and silver feathers, he's been very gentle with the hens and very easy-going with our two other roosters. But! I suspect that one of my amberlink...

I was introduced to chicken raising about two years ago when my roommate (who grew up around chickens) decided to start her own flock at her new house! I've helped raise many chicks but I finally bought my very own about a week and a half ago and they give me life. We probably have about 30...
