I was trying to search for some answers on how to feed chickens "brood comb", but as. 'Brood' and 'comb' are already chicken related words the search engines are getting all mixed up. A friend of ours keeps bees, we keep chickens, and we try to symbiotically benefit each other as much as...

Thank you! We're wonder if we should try that beak clipping technique we've heard about for keeping hens from hurting each other while pecking 🤷‍♀️

Our Ameracaunas beards get dirty when they eat. We feed them pellets that we've soaked first so they're soft. We have a mixed flock and throughout the day we notice the girls all cleaning each others faces, however some of our Ameracauna's beards are getting plucked off in the cleaning process...

Sunflower seeds very rarely. But we do give them beef fat when we cook ground beef. Also not that often. Thank you

Only a Year old. No improvement still on Becky's bottom. Still laying

Thank you! They sound lovely, unfortunately PA is a bit too far for us. (we're up near RI and MA)

Our flock of 21 has shrunk down to 18. We have a mixed flock of Buff Orpingtons, Black Australorps, Ameracaunas, and Buff Orpington x Black Australorps. They consist of three generations of chickens. The Orpingtons being Grandmas to our youngest crossed chicks. With the crossed chicks'...

One of the things we're trying to sort out now is a micro-managing hen. She's not at the top of our pecking order, however she has given herself the...

Hey Everyone! We've got a little more room in our flock and are looking to add 6-7 more females. We'd like to have a chocolate egg layer or two, then focusing on heavy layers. If anyone out there has any for sale we'd love to know! We're in the northeast USA. Our local stores just don't have...

Thank you, she was family favorite. Lord only knows what happened.

Thank you

Update on Lottie! We lost her this afternoon. What ever happened it was fatal. She had spent yesterday just standing still. Her backside seemed filled puffy. Then today she laid what seemed to be just an egg yolk. She spent the day laying down and sleeping. After a quiet loving visit this...

Hey everyone! Our beloved Australorp x buff Orpington Lottie healed beautifully after having a prolapsed rump, however now a month or two later she's got trouble again. She came asking for help this morning when my husband noticed her bleeding backside. Our first thought was that she relapsed...

Update on Lottie! The tums did the trick!

No, but I could get ahold of some. Is this some how calcium related?

We've got a super sweet young hen who started laying eggs 2 weeks ago. She's 7 months old, named Lottie. She's been going along great, until three days ago. We feed the girls organic soy-free feed which we pre softened in water immediately before feeding. Three days ago we gave them a bunch of...

just had to share a picture or two of our little 9 week old ameracauna chicks, we think they're the cutest little bearded ladies!

our little black broody. still so sweet, and still the only one consistently sitting.

now 9 weeks old...very much gentle commanding giants compared the rest of their siblings.
