    Broken back hen....advice?

    javascript:insert_text('', ''); Thanks for the story, Justusnak, I was hoping for something like that. I agree, Kim, that I'll just wait, and keep he stress free, and do what Justusnak did... give her aspirin in water and electrolytes and protein. I hope she pulls through. Thanks. I love...

    Broken back hen....advice?

    I'm hoping that she is just sore too. However she really doesn't want to put her left leg down so I'm wondering if it's dislocated? I'll wait patiently and see how it turns out. I'm wondering about her back though or her lungs. Anyone else have a story?

    Broken back hen....advice?

    fellow northern midwesterners, how do you insulate you henhouse?

    I live in the city of Minneapolis and it gets quite chilli in the winter and quite hot in the summer. I'm wondering what other Minnesotans, North Dakotans, Iowans do to keep their chickens warm in the winter. I will have three hens. I understand that putting light in the henhouse makes sense...

    How does using a tractor/ark effect the lawn?

    I'm a city girl with a lawn. I'm interested in the tractor henhouse and coop to be moved from different areas of the lawn. I'm wondering how that works...is there a bunch of poop on the ground that can be watered into the dirt after the tractor is moved? Does it kill the grass? Do the...
