    1 rooster, 15 hens - why so much crowing?

    I have one Ayam Cemani rooster and 15 assorted hens on 1/3 acre. We live in the 'burbs and no one else around has chickens. I was hoping having a large harem and no competition would reduce his inclination to crow. My neighbors haven't said anything but the coop is near my bedroom window...

    Does Chicken Keeping Ever Get Boring?

    Does Chicken Keeping Ever Get Boring? Can or does chicken raising ever get dull? I’ve been at this chicken keeping business for years now. I don’t know about you, but when I first began my journey, it seemed as though I couldn’t learn enough about chickens. I read every book about chickens at...

    Awesome Coop!

    I am in LOVE with my new coop from SanTan Valley Coops! Marco built it in Arizona, and delivered it to LA, assembling it on my property. I opted to paint it and embellish. Am obsessed. Just wanted you all to see.

    Suddenly found one of my chickens dead :(

    I have no clue as to why my hen would be dead this morning. We had a regular morning. I went out at 6 AM to feed, water and pet my flock. They are well trained (or I am) because they know if they start cackling I'll come to open the coop door and let them graze in the yard. Little Bo Peep was...
