My chickens come back from free ranging because they know they are getting feed because I feed my chickens at night. So maybe after your chickens understand that they are getting feed there and sleep there, they will return to the coop after free ranging.
No matter what I am doing, my rooster always comes after me and pecks at my legs very hard and sometimes jumps as well. I've been kicking him whenever he does that, but I don't want to do that anymore. I want him to know that what he is doing is not acceptable. Does anyone have any ideas?
Put up the cutest pictures of your chickens or an individual chicken(: They can be chicks or grown up chickens(:
I'll start...
sleepy chicks(:
percy, a cornish rock(:
my white leghorn rooster named tiger as a baby(: he's all grown up now. i know the pic is kinda blurry but that's the best picture i had on my computer
My friend wants to give her two bantam silkies to me and I already have a flock of nine chickens with 2 roosters and 7 hens. They are about 8 months old and her chickens are about 2 years old. Does anyone know how I should introduce the two to my current flock?
One of my roosters had a very red neck, and now he is losing some of his feathers on his neck. I've been told that frost bite (which he could have, due to some black spots on his comb) could result in feather loss, but the red neck is worrying me.
I can't post pictures because I don't know how
