    The never-ending molt?

    11 hens, one pugnacious rooster; we feed them this: https://organicfeeds.com/products/chicken/organic-egg-layer-pellets/ plus I often give them dried meal worms and grubs as a treat and they typically free range.

    We were home, but never heard a thing. Our bedroom windows face the front of the house, though and the coop is set back in the backyard. And thanks. 😥

    Flock wiped out last night (description is a little graphic, but no photos)

    After an unfortunate miscommunication between my husband and I last night, the door to our chicken run was never closed. Please no judgment. We're heartbroken. When I went outside this morning, I found two carcasses about 10 feet from the coop. One was a hen, sitting upright (sorry, but as...
