Our year-old Wyandotte (Silver Laced?? Mixed??) is in need of a new home. He has been nothing but sweet for a year, but has recently spurred our toddler and has also started running up to my husband and other kids. He is gentle with our hens. I think he’d be really happy with more space and in...

We are first-time chicken owners with a backyard flock of a dozen 22-week-old chickens (1 rooster, 11 hens). About 4-5 of our girls have recently started laying. 2 days ago, one of my daughters noticed a couple small spots of blood on the place the chickens exit the coop. (This could have also...
