    Unable to walk

    Thanks for your reply and support. I live in Spain, vets only seem to treat cats and dogs. Sadly there is one expert on birds in the whole province, i couldn't do the autopsy and im worried it might be contagious. I have a question. Danny, did all your flock die of cancer and internal...

    Hens attack rooster

    They are in the run just for a few hours a day, in the morning when they lay. A big part of the day they spend free-ranging in a very big area. I believe the age difference plays a part here. Will he ever be a part of the flock?

    Hen won't go to sleep

    I have the roosts at two levels. The height is not an issue. Also, she would jump on my head just fine. The problem is behavioural. She stays in the run (predator proof) and the door to the coop is open. She is waiting at the door for someone to place her on the roost. Alone, in the dark. She...

    Hen won't go to sleep

    It's not a light issue. It's a walk-in coop. I tried to get inside and she would follow me and jump in my arms in the coop so that i place her on the roost. She never jumps onto the sticks. She jumps on me. Would spend the night out in the rain waiting for me. I really dont know what to do

    Hen won't go to sleep

    Hi folks, There is one hen in my flock that behaves weird. Her name is Princessa, she seems more like a dog following me and running between my legs. She is a Red hen and a great layer. During the day she is fine with the flock, sticks with the group. At night, when all the hens go to sleep she...

The were numerous fights but it seems like they established their pecking order. By accident, instead of...

    Sprained or broken wing. Help needed!

    Thank you for your reply. He does not scream when touched. He never did even when the injury just happened. He cannot flap it though. Shall i clip the long feathers in the wing to reduce the weigh and help keep it in place?

    Hi all, I have a young rooster (about 3-4 months) and I keep him separated from the flock because he is still young and the hens want to kill him. Last week ive noticed that his right wing was droopy and the shoulder sticking away from the body. I didnt see any open wounds. No clue what he did...
