Are we having a mass feather loss this spring? Noticed the other day that my RIR mix hens look the same way. The Whites are okay and not having the same condition. They are on pellet food, offer oyster shell in a seperate feeder, give them three handsful of greens (collard, romaine or whatever...

Sorry y'all. Okay found out. Hubby says supposed to be a mix of RIR and White RI......sure wish I could get that photo upload to work.

I'm not sure...he's a mix....a beautiful bird, just a little too agressive for us. We have quite a few young grandchildren. He's really good with his girls. Proctective and loves to crow when you leave his area!!! I do have a picture but can't get it to upload. You can email me and I can then...

I am sad today. Guess after our run around the coop and Forest hiding under the coop yesterday he wasn't up to watching his ladies today. When I went out to give the ladies treats and gather the eggs today, I noticed one of my hens missing. We have a six foot fence around the yard and it is dug...

Thanks everyone for your advice... Just as I though when I went out yesterday afternoon my roo was eyeing me. Reading all your posts gave me a little more courage BUT I had a plastic leaf rake with me. As I began feeding treats to my girls, I noticed he decided to eat too. NOT! I didn't touch...

Don't know if this will help, but we had trouble with one of our pullets. My husband and I came at her from both sides and kept prodding toward the coop. When she saw the others in there, she followed and went in.

Wow! I just read all that has happened. My goodness. I didn't realize roo's got so aggressive! (we've had to watch our backs pretty much all the time when going into the chicken yard) Our roo pecked the back of my daughter's leg after she went to feed them and had a bit of a kicking match with...

Wow! y'all have wonderful ideas about protective shade in the pens! This is our first year with chickens and we are learning a lot, as we did planting a garden here where they soil is so poor and the local animals are so hungry! LOL My husband and I have been thinking that next spring we will...

Thank you so much for your info! Txcarl this happened about a month ago and she is still here! Thank Goodness. I assume she is okay since you said she would be sick. It very well could be that she started decreasing her lay before the weather got cold. I will just keep on eye on all our white...

Thank you dawg53

Thank you Mahonri!

Hello again y'all. As I stated in my newbie introduction (posted just a few minutes ago) we have 4 Rhode Island Reds and 4 white hens that I do not at this time know the breed. We started getting eggs in September this year. We every day were getting four of each. Four brown eggs and four...

We are new but have really enjoyed this site, searching, reading and learning. I would like to tell you a bit about us. It is November 2010. My husband and I think we are empty nesters...LOL. We are, sort of. All our four children have grown and moved out of the house but have come back and...
