I think it helps to have them close my dogs are inside most of the time and especially at night but i think most predators especially big ones would be a little more leary about coming to close to humans. Gotta go we went into town today for monthly shopping and I am about to fall asleep at the...

I know thats why when my dh built our coop I had him put it close to the house, thinking that with our dogs and it being close maybe we wouldn't get many visits from predators.. We hear coyotes and I saw one on our driveway a few years ago..

yep they had one hen survive and their rooster was buried alive.. I haven't had a chance to look to see if they posted about him tonight.

I know did you read on here about the person who lost 22 chickens to dogs just this past week? they found their rooster buried alive in their neighbors yard.. Yep dogs and ducks and chickens don't do very well, Everytime we pass a pond I always say gosh I wish I had that for our birds, my dh...

I started with ducks all of them except for 3 are rescues, then I wanted a goose so my dh surprised me with a goose egg so we put it under one of my muscovy hens and she hatched it, only problem was she had 1 duck egg under her and the goose hatched at day 28 and muscovies hatch on day 34 or...

thanks I bought some when i got my last chicks and for the life of me couldn't remember what it was called. I have game and game /bantam, cochin bantams and cochin /game bantams. then the Brahmas and my 2 youngest ones which are Lavender Orpingtons.. the ones to hatch are going to be mixes...

I have 2 hens sitting now one on 3 eggs shes my Brahma that hatched here last spring and my little bantam frizzle is sitting on 5 eggs.. I am about maxed out too for space, so most likely these chicks will be sold too, I just enjoy seeing the hens with their chicks so much it's hard not to let...

They are and I thought the show boys were also. there was only 2 there and they must have been a match pair.. I don't know about the show girls and boys but I read that naked necks are pretty hardy.. how are they with other chickens? do they get picked on because they look different?

their cute.. I saw my first show girls and boys at a chicken show here in N.C. back in March they were cute too.yep they are mini turkeys.. lol the naked necks

were the other 3 you showed naked necks or show girls I am not up much on the chickens without neck feathers... lol they are all so cute..

Good idea!

I don't know about looking red but when it's on me and it usually is, it's really purple

I wonder if when you get ready to put them all together if you could do kinda like shuffle putting some chicks into another brooder and viseversa. that way when you put them all together the pecking order is has to be established again. Am I making myself clear. Like they have to start all over...

not wash but wipe it off. that way the cotton ball or tissue is just slightly damp. hey i was just reading where someone used a piece of screen or hardware cloth to separate their chicks that that way they can see ,smell but not touch.. just have to be careful with the ends that stuff hurts...

since you'd be using a tissue of even a cotton ball I don't think that much alcohol would get into her mouth, just make sure it's not dripping .you know just wet enough to gently wash off.

I wonder if you tried some rubbing Alcohol on a tissue and rubbed if that would take it off.

How is everyone today?

I meant the chicks at the store must have been pecking it to have had a sore that big on it thigh. I am sorry to hear that heather isn't coming around. Sounds like she has lost the will to live. so sorry.
