    Hi everyone!

    Hi all, I'm Strato and I just moved to a new house that came a chicken run and a flock, and I'm very excited/slightly overwhelmed by all the information I'm trying to learn about taking care of them! (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Brand-new, although I have...

    Feral cats

    Hello. The last couple weeks I have spotted a lone cat wondering around our property. I have kept my chickens locked up but my ducks wander around during the day. I was wondering if I have to worry about this cat. My 4 Ancona ducks are always together and quack at everything that moves. My dog...

    Did You Know???

    I’ve had my chickens since March 26, 2019 and I’ve recently went in their run and sat down and observed their behavior. What I found out shocked me quite a bit. For a long time, this is something that I didn’t even know about domesticated chickens. How they behave is very feline like. Like I’m...

    Introductions

    Shared outside water; questionable worm castings; cat pee and poo

    Ok, hard part over - trying to make the title short enough :) Got my first two chickens two Saturdays ago. 1 - By accident the cats and chickens are drinking out of the same outdoor dish with water in it. Can this be a problem to either of them? 2. Chickens have been free-ranging some of the...

    Warriors short story *cringe warning

    So basically, I’ve always wondered what would happen if “the three” had never happened and if Ivypool never left the dark forest. It might be confusing but basically Ivypool is chosen as the new “leader” of the dark forest after she managed to kill Brokenstar. She’s still alive and in...

    Lost 2 of the 4 girls

    Would neighborhood cats be considered predators? We lost 2 of our girls today and the only animals we've seen near the birds are neighborhood cats. One the head Is missing the other was torn to shreds. Not even eaten. Looks like a sport kill.

    Stray Cats, How do I lure them in?!?

    I'm a crazy animal person. I know it is just about kitten season, and I also know I have a few stray cats in my neighborhood. Most of them are intact. I want to start a TNR program because of my local shelter always has a bunch of cats,(It's a kill shelter) and I know the outcome for a lot of...
