    Rooster loves me but hates everyone else

    My Rooster, who is almost 2 that I hatched and raised myself, attacks EVERYONE except me. If anyone comes near me when I’m outside with them, he goes at them instantly. He jumps on my back and lays down, and also lays on my lap. He’s never hurt me. Why is he so mean to everyone else except me...

    Injured Hen Won't Eat

    Long story short, last week a raccoon killed my flock of bantams. Two survivors were injured. The one I'm calling Glory for right now had her head chomped on. Her whole face was a grotesque, mauled mass of blood and meat. Her beak was off center and her tongue hung out. I've done everything I...

    Wheezing when breathing after 'possum attack

    Hello, last night an opossum got into our coop and tore out many chicken's feathers, but other than that they all seemed fine except for Millie. She was wheezing.

    My mean little heffer(s)

    Ok. So I have 2 mean little heffers. One in my flock of Sapphire Gem pullets. She will get a hold of my skin and twist it. I think she does it to get treats. But guess what? No treats when she acts that way. Normally she’s just as nice as the other ones. It’s only when there are treats on the...
