    Chicken missing leg

    My chickens free range, and I would have restricted them for a while to help the predator lose interest but we discovered an unsecure spot at the windows of our coop where it was built with hardware cloth with squares that are too big. A racoon just reached through and ate her leg up as far as...

    Chicken missing leg

    For all I was sure it couldn't have been. I have decided it WAS a racoon. The hardware cloth that came on the windows of my coop was just too big and I found blood and feathers

    Chicken missing leg

    I dont really know where she was when she lost the leg. She was found in the coop, just sitting. She was 12 weeks old. There are seven other 12 week chickens. There are also 10 15 week old chickens and 8 12 week old chickens that all free range together.

    Chicken missing leg

    So my daughter who is very animal smart came to tell me the chickens went in the woods and she thought something was wrong. I thought maybe they were scared of us mowing and running a chain saw, so I went to put them in their run. She found one of them (12 week pullet) just sitting in the...

    1 with lethargy. Maybe a little hunched. Maybe just maybe a pink tinge to the poop if you really squint and look for it. His chirp was raspy a bit. And 1 who has a vent that looks dark and swollen but no symptoms and is pooping fine. A third who has had a dark purple bruise looking spot on its...

    Mixing Rooster Booster in advance?

    I'm giving some potentially ailing chicks Rooster Booster powder in their water to help them. I mixed a gallon of the water last night and have been using it to refill their water through the day. How long can I keep a gallon premixed? Do I need to refrigerate? (I didnt and I dont want cold...

    Help! White TSC bantams

    So, in an assorted bantam bin at Tractor Supply I found 3 easter eggers that were obviously mislabeled. I picked them up, but you have to have 4 right? So I pick out 3 "unique" looking bantams because I knew my kids would love some bantams as pets and you cant buy just 1 bantam to add to your...
