    Mice in my coop

    My current chicken coop was built into a shed but we didn’t convert the whole thing. Half of the shed is the coop, and the other half is the shed area. They have access to the shed area because the hallway in the shed is basically how they come out into their run. In our shed, we have several...

    Bald spot?? Over mating or mites?

    Hi everyone! So I noticed that my favorite hen (Muffin) had a patch of her fluff showing, so I went to see what was up and found her back almost completely feather-less. It almost looked like a broody hens belly, but on her back. She also had scabs and super super dry looking skin on her back in...

    What breed could be my multi-color rooster?!

    Hello everyone, I bought one of my roosters at TSC and I'm not sure what breed he is because when I bought my 4 chickens, the TSC staff marked all of them as leghorns which was "wrong". I think he may be a blue splashed Wyandotte x Easter Egger. EXTRA: I'm also thinking to buy some mealworm...
