    Where can I get a female baby chicken this weekend? I hatched one baby this week by accident and it needs a friend. I don't want to go to Pratt's and I've called a few places that either don't have any or only have unsexed chicks. Thanks!

    I actually have four roosters (16 total chickens counting the missing girl). Somehow everyone gets along. I'll ask the neighbor about hawks.

    I hope she found a kind soul who is taking care of her, yeah. We have at least three other families with chickens in the neighborhood, two of which said they didn't see her. The other house doesn't answer their door even when I know there's someone inside. I'd love to say she's a sweet girl...

    One of my hens has gone missing. She's red/brown, average size. Location is near Thomas Rd and 16th St in Phoenix. No evidence of predator incident. She probably escaped through a hole in the fence. Even if she isn't alive, I would prefer closure over not knowing. Missing since Monday. :(

    I imagine this has been asked before, but I'm not sure how to find the answer.... Where should I go if I'm looking to rescue a hen? I've looked at a few animal shelter sites and haven't found any chickens in AZ that need rescuing. Do local egg production places let people adopt the hens they...

    Quote: BE CERTAIN TO ISOLATE THE HEN WITH THE RUNNY NOSE AWAY FROM YOUR OTHER CHICKENS. If it has infectious bronchitis, it could devastate your entire flock. Eek. Is this fatal? This is my pet house chicken, I would be devestated.

    Has anyone had a problem with Valley Fever with your chickens? I'm thinking I might have gotten it and if my chickens are taking dirt baths outside, can't they get it too? I have a hen with a runny nose but is otherwise fine. Thanks!

    Quote: I have two roosters that have been friends since a week old that are best buds to the point where they don't like being out of each other's sight. They play fight but don't do any damage to each other and don't seem like they mean any harm. I've only got three chickens total though.

    I knew I couldn't watch a cruelty video so I googled a text version instead. The description I read is good enough to make me think about going vegetarian. Of course it doesn't help that my three chickens are perfectly content to sit on my lap while I pet them. I had my EE Betty a year before I...

    My little flock had a eventful day outside. At one point all three of them were dustbathing, but by time I got the camera only two of them were still at it. And here's my EE hen!

    Thanks for the welcome everyone, and the compliments on the chicks. The self-blue game ("Foxy") is as feisty as she is cute. I'll see about getting a pic of the EE soon.

    Hello and first time posting in this thread! I'm in central Phx and I've got a one year old EE hen and two 7 week old bantams, one a black cochin and one a self-blue old english game hen. I don't have a coop or run yet but I'm planning on building one as soon as I can scrape up the money. I have...
