    Disturbance in the pecking order.

    Your right it looks gross in the picture but that’s not the whole pen. If you look close to the top you can see where the gray sand starts that is under the coop and the the right side of the coop is pea gravel. In front of the chickens, you can’t see in the picture, is what we call a leaf bed...

    Rooster doesn’t roost.

    we have 5 hens and one rooster the all go in the coop at night by themselves but for some reason the rooster stays on the floor of the coop. Nothing seems wrong with him but I have noticed he doesn’t try to get to higher spots like the hens. Is this normal or is he maybe afraid of Heights...

    My First Broody!

    The Dominique is my girl. I bend down pat my arm and she flys up on it to get some attention. The others just like to do what chickens do.

    Not sure what to do.

    When we got her she was in a small pen being sold with 15 to 20 others in it. She seems in good health after watch the last week and you can see the start of feathers coming in but still looks scabby and sore.

    Is this Cochin pullet or roo?

    we recently got new chickens and my aunt was under the impression they were both female. I am questioning the splash Cochin we got because the are major differences between that one and our partridge Cochin of the same age. He/ she is at either 8 or 9 weeks of age.

    Not sure what to do.

    we recently got a couple new chickens and one of them was the one every other chicken picked on. All of the tail feathers are gone and the whole rear end looks sore. We are keeping it separated from the others via fence but I’m not sure if there is anything else we should do to help the healing...
