    Hi All, Thanks again for all who showed concern, came up with suggestions, or wished well. Looks like crisis has been averted for the moment. The bird has been getting extra protein just to help her through the next few days. As of the roosting time this evening, the saddle had remained/is in...

    Yes, 2 for 15, and the 2nd in command is particularly nasty.

    Thanks for everyone who showed concern and tried to help. I was able to get the saddle on the hen per micstrachan and Eggcessive's suggestion/instructions. We'll see how it works tomorrow. The image above was particularly useful.

    Hi, do you need to tie this under the hen's belly?

    Thanks. Good suggestions. I will use a large cat crate for tonight (unless otherwise advised) to stop things getting worth. I can keep her separated that much.Do you know of any video or illustrations on making or use of saddle? It will take some time to buy one (deep rural area here).

    How many days do you think she can survive in a box, given food, water, and high protein supplement of course?

    Serious Injury/ suggestions welcome

    I noticed some feathers missing from a young hen, on the upper back near the neck. This morning I noticed blood and more feathers missing towards the lower back. The injury, most likely as a result of pecking, got worth by the evening. As the injuries are likely happening during the daytime, I...

    Opinions of cold climate chicken keepers needed

    For tonight they should be ok. Tomorrow night is going to be colder. If you cannot add any heat source, the best option would be to minimize the draft inside the coop. If you can wrap something like tarp around the coup it will help reduce the speed of the cold air rushing in. With that I would...

    Opinions of cold climate chicken keepers needed

    Hi, is that -33F true temperature or with wind chill? How cold do you think it got inside the coop?

    Partridge Wyandotte

    Hello there, Thanks for the thorough and comprehensive input. I gather the ones you got from Ideal did not produce the show quality patterns you were looking for. I am new to this, certainly not as experienced as you. Would you say their colors and feather patterns may improve after one round of...

    introducing myself

    Sounds like wine country. Nice. Snow is nice too, but come mid winter, you get tired of it. For those of us living in rural areas, there is a good bit of work associated with that too. I wish some snow days for you and family in Dordogne in the upcoming weeks and months, and one more snow...
