I have a chicken coop that has a tunnel that connects to their chicken run. My chickens are pretty much at the end of their molt season but some still are molting. I noticed a mouse that ran through their chicken run about a few weeks ago. There was a blue plastic kiddie pool i used for the...
received two ducklings at 3 days old, and both appeared healthy at the time. We’re now in week 2, and while one duck has tripled in size, the other has barely grown. Despite that, she eats, drinks plenty of water, and sleeps regularly. She loves to cuddle up next to her sibling but tends to...
I’m a first-time chicken owner and could use some advice. This afternoon, I found one of my chickens injured, and I suspect it might be the result of pecking or bullying.
The injured chicken is about 8-9 months old, while the others are around 9–10 months, so she’s not much younger. I don’t...

I have my chickens in their own coop and I use construction sand and absolutely love it! It's not stinky and easy to clean.

I have a blue Gem who is approximately 18 weeks old. The past two weeks she's been significantly louder but i thought it was because of the heat ( we're 3 weeks in 105 degree weather). Today I heard "bawking" for the first time, I ran outside to find the blue gem ontop of her chicken coop laying...
