    What's In Her Eyes?

    The Pecking Order

    Hi guys! So, one of my chickens is bullying the other. She doesn't let her eat or sleep where/when she wants. I had to take the victim away inside to feed her and let her sleep in peace. She was then healthy so I let her out to see if the "Pecking Order Business" had stopped, but it hasn't. I'm...

    eggs getting smaller

    An egg really depends on what your chicken eats. Has your chicken been eating less than usual? Then that is probably the reason. Weather is usually not a variable while egg-laying. Sometimes while a chicken is molting it will not lay eggs, so if your chicken is molting, don't be worried that...

    I am sorry to hear about the death :( What you mainly need to do is investigate so you can prevent this from happening. Did a predator possibly sneak into the coop and killed the chicken? If so, how did it get there? Think of all the possibilities and look for clues until you have found the...

    Is this scaly leg mites?

    I don't know what the problem is either, but I do know some breeds do have feathered legs. Maybe feathered legs isn't the case because he would've had more feathers on his legs earlier. This could be a disease (or leg mites) so I suggest going to a vet and having him checked out. If this is...

    My chicks are scared to death of me

    Chickens will be scared of anybody at first. Remember to always approach them gently and try to bond with them. Allow them to be used to you and when they are for a while, they won't find you so scary. Also, If you want to be close to them without scaring them, you can put some treats for them...

    Sick Chicken

    I'm sorry to hear about your chicken! :( I had the same problem with one of my chickens with the same symptoms. Continue keeping her away from the other chickens and make sure to take her to the vet to get her checked out. The vet will probably give you antibiotics to feed her which help ALOT...

    Hawks :(

    I'm very sorry for your loss. I understand how hard it is to loose your chicken. :( I had the same thing happen to my chicken. I'd let them out and occasionally check on them every so often, but that's a mistake. Trees, two barns, and wires help keep your chicken safe but when they are out you...
