About two months ago I have three new hens along with one that is about a year old. They all get along very well now. But I am only getting 3 eggs a day now . How can I figure out which chicken is not laying eggs.
We're hoping that maybe she will start soon..
Unfortunately I think you're right really sucks . Birds were always free-range.
I had 1 bird left got 3 new but the old chicken being nasty but seems better today.
Hopefully she don't stop them from eating fortunately I'm not going to be home to keep a eye
My old dog got along fine with chickens...
I brought her in the house kept her warm unfortunately a few hours later she died.
I've been to be one of my favorite chicken
It's funny because the dog used to be afraid of the chickens..
Today I picked up three new birds but the one that was left is being nasty to them hopefully they will...
The chicken was all wet I don't see no blood I don't know if I should put the chicken out of its misery. Or nurse it..
I took her in the house in a towel hopefully the warmth will help
Any suggestions are welcome please who played football together
I had purchased a heated water trough . But it is 4 gallons and I only have three chickens..
I have a well here so there was no chlorine in the water it's getting a little algae in it as I am only changing it once a week.. somebody told me I could put a couple teaspoons of Clorox in the water...
I've been letting the chickens free-range there's only three of them..
They always seem to stay near but they discovered neighbor feeding cat outside now they going to steal the cat food.. off the top of my neighbor's picnic table and leaving a mess..
I was thinking you putting up a nylon mesh...
I work at night and have to put the chickens in the pen before I go..
I found that i can shake trail mix
bag of bugs...& My chickens come running...
Just hoping that a handful of the trail mix a day for 3 chickens.
Is okay for them it it works so well to get birds in at night
I was told to keep new chicken in kennel near outher birds...
It's been about 3 weeks now how do I know if she's ready to go in with the rest of the flock she still runs away from them when I let them all out
Thank you..I have her in her own cage next to the flock feel bad that I keep her in 24/7 but she's eating well and much calmer
Please can you tell which breed I have..that are very friendly & go back in coop most of the time without me catching them.dont know if little one will come in at night...
I was advised to separate new younger bird that was being pecked on ..I put her in a change next to coop,pen today as she escaped yesterday surprised she lived through the night...
I feel terribly about buying only 1 new bird I didn't know this would happen..would it take long b4 she can join...
Wow . didn't expect so much help so fast!!!
I don't know how old thay are but I have them 5 -6 wks.thay been laying eggs 3-4 wks now...
The new one is smaller & scroney compared to the rest..
Seem to be doing better......
As long as she doesn't find a new hiding spot so I can put her in at night
After losing a chicken to I guess a fox..
I went and got a new bird...
But the other 3 keep pecking at the new one...poor bite is so afarid....than seem to get along.and it starts all over
Do I need to seporate the new bird till it gets bigger? Help please
