I'm in Miami, Florida, I might have to take my rooster.

Has this happened to anyone's roosters? I also noticed that his comb is smaller and less red. He is a free-range rooster- he stopped eating cracked corn and other grains, but he will eat only bread and crackers (wet) very whole-heartedly. I've also noticed that he doesn't move around as much as...

chickens? If the excretions are pretty much all liquid does it mean sickness?

I live in Miami, Florida. It'll be the first winter that I have chickens. They are 3 free-range chickens, and thus far they've been sleeping up in a tree. Do you think they'll be OK in the Miami winter? Should I be giving them something special to eat? One is a gamebird bantam rooster, the hen...

My 3 chickens are free on on the front and backyard. I do give them scratch atleast once a day, but it seems like they're always begging me for more food. What should I do? Do you recommend I keep a feeder somewhere for them? Free-range chickens don't find enough food?

Can anyone recommend a thermometer for measuring temp with a heat lamp for raising chicks? Any good thermometers in CVS, Walgreens, Kmart, Target?

even if they never hatch? I'm interested in knowing if a hen would actually sit on the eggs forever because they don't hatch? Or do they know better after a certain amount of time, and come out of the broodiness? This is not my situation, I'm new at owning chickens, and just wondering.

I'm giving away this little guy, he needs a new loving home. He's in great health, is very cute character. I know this will sound strange, but he is used to sleeping high up in a *very* dense tree. I made him a ladder that he's been using to get up in the tree. I've had him for several months...

The hen next to the chick is the mama... and in first picture she's about to peck the chick...

Every now and then when I feed my chickens (flock of 3) my rooster will spread out one wing down his side, and he'll use his other side to block the other chicken's path to the food. He'll sometimes do this while quickly flapping his stretched out wing at his side and circle the other chicken...
