    Chickens making a strange noise when something new is in the sky, can’t find any answers online?!

    Hi, so I’m currently sat out with my chickens on the garden.

    New chickens stopped roosting?!

    Hi, I’ve had 3 brown hybrids since May, and about 4 weeks ago I got a light Sussex hybrid and 2 black copper maran hybrids. Housing them was a struggle at first, for 2 weeks we had a wire divider through the run and the indoor coop as well. So they could see each other at all times but not...
