Half of my chickens poop is very light and loose compared to the rest. I thought I noticed blood last week so I’d been treating them for coccidiosis, it’s been 7 days now. The weather has been very up and down and raining every few days. I noticed one of my chickens standing hunched up. Maybe...
Hello,
Just popping in to say hi and thank you for having a place for us (new and seasoned) chicken lovers.
I’ve had my 4 girls and roo for a little over a year and still learning.
I started off with adopting 8 chicks from a local farm and 7 survived. Three ended up being Roos and 4 hens. We...
Hi everyone!
I am a student studying industrial design and working on a project focused on improving common chicken-keeping challenges, and I’d love to hear from experienced keepers like you. Growing up I kept chickens and ducks for eggs so I'm very passionate about the animals, along with how...

This #chicken was acting extremely suspicious. I walk into the room every single day but today he just seemed a little bit more odd. The chickens were all staring at me as if I were someone weird, but one #rooster had jumped up on top of the chicken coop and started crowing!! I thought it was Hilar
Is it just me? Or is it just relaxing to deal with chickens. Cleaning their coop. Feeding them. I get a sense of calmness and peace when I’m with them. Watching them. They look and sound like dinosaurs 😂 when they walk. They follow me around as I walk with their crocking sounds… I love my babies...
My adorable and fluffy Chocolate Silver Laced Orpingtons! 🐔 These stunning chickens are not only cute but also unique with their beautiful feather patterns. With their striking color and sweet personalities, they’re sure to steal your heart!
The World’s Happiest Chickens have been spotted in our backyard! These Barbu De Watermael bantams from GreenFire Farms are so full of joy. Every morning, I release these little fluffballs from their coop, and it’s like a chicken flash mob.
Hi friends! I manage a farm in New York where we raise many different types of birds ranging from chickens and ducks, to turkeys and geese, to ostriches and emus. I collect feathers from these birds during their natural molting process to make art so all feathers that go into my art comes from...
Has anyone known of Blackhead being a problem in Eastern Texas (Midway/Madisonville area)? I want to start raising a small flock of turkeys this spring but I need to make sure I have their set-up right before getting them. I do have a small flock of chickens as well.
Thank you all for your...
I had some Chicken Videos where we got our chickens everything they like to eat! From Watermelons, Fresh Vegetables to their Favorite Snack: Chicken Nuggets. We got balloons to decorate, along with party sombreros party blowers. Happy Anniversary at BIG Feathers Farm

Hi, I posted a thread about my chicken and I’m so thankful for people who responded to that one. I’m hoping to reach more people. My one year old chicken is not seeing properly, keeping her one eye shut and yesterday she managed to eat lots if I keep my hand close to her eye. She can’t aim and...
Hello, I am hoping to get ducks this year, I know drakes to hens should be at least 4 or more per drake, but I will be hatching out eggs and figure i will have more males to females then i want (unless I get super lucky), I plan to have a bachelor's pen specifically for my extra rooster grow...
Hi, I'm hoping for some recommendations/suggestions here. I recently had my flock decimated by a weasel, and the survivors are spending the rest of the winter in my garage. But come Spring I'd like to set up a few new systems to keep them safe.
In the past I've extended the day to increase...
