    Bad Hen chasing plucking newbies feathers

    Ours is actually a little better too. I added lots of chicken clutter to the run so she couldn’t get to the new ones as easily or at least then could run and hide. I also started paying more attention to the mean hen and would give her some treats and she has calmed down and only picks like she...

    Do you think this is a rooster?

    I have an approximately 12 week old Satin. Is anyone able to tell me if they think it’s a rooster? We think we’ve heard it crow, but not sure. The close up pictures were taken today. The far away picture was taken a few weeks ago.

    Bad Hen chasing plucking newbies feathers

    Did you ever get this resolved? And if so, how? I have the same situation! My hen sounds just like yours. Never stays with the flock, last to come in, gets picked on by the rest. However, her bad behavior is starting to make the rest of the old hens pick on the newbies now too. It's awful to...

    chickens won’t eat out of new feeder?!

    I’m having the same issues. Should I remove all other food so hunger takes over? I still have my other feeder in there for fear they wouldn’t get any food.

    Hahaha! That cracked me up. I hope it's a case of excess pigment and not stupidity. Thank you!

    Help determining gender of chicks

    I have two chicks (I think they’re about 7 weeks old) that the gender is questionable. All we’re supposed to be sexed and hens but I’m pretty sure the speckled Sussex is a male and I have a Cinnamon Queen that has some red wattles that look like they could be starting and the comb looks reddish...
