    Done molting but not laying again yet

    I've got 3 hens (araucana blends) that are about 2.5 years old. They just finished a pretty rough molting season (they looked so pitiful!). They're no longer molting, but only 1 started laying again. Well, now she hasn't laid in about 2 weeks. The others haven't started laying yet since they're...

    Nothing left but a pile of feathers

    I am so sad. My favorite hen Rosie (she's a cochin) is gone. I keep her and my 4 pullets (6 month old EE) in a run. There are plenty of places for them to hide, either in the coop or under the coop. There is a 4ft tall fence surrounding the run and coop. I checked on them yesterday morning and...

I introduced the 4 pullets to the coop with my cochin. After about a week, they were all 5 getting along great. The 4 pullets have grown...

    App suddenly shuts down and closes

    Hi. I've had an issue with this app randomly shutting down and closing in the middle of me typing or reading threads/information on here. My app is up-to-date. When the app closes on me, it goes back to the main homescreen when I reopen it, instead of where I was reading when I was interrupted...

    EE, Araurana or Ameracauna? Pullets or cockrels?

    I purchased these chicks from Hoovers Hachery through TSC. These are the only 4 that survived from the 10 I ordered. Supposedly, they are all females. I am not positive on their exact breeds, other than they are Easter Eggers, Ameraucana or Araucana, so I need help identifying each breed. And...
