    She's suddenly decided to be an escape artist and doesn't like her girls

    TLDR; Our oldest and smallest has suddenly decided to fly over her run fence to go digging. I moved their fence out further so she had even more and new areas to dig, but she's decided to just leave as soon as I put her back in the run. Our momma hen was given to use when we got our four...

    Escape artist - clip wings?

    One of our 7 month old pullets, Sadie, has decided to start jumping over the fence in the backyard so she can go exploring in the woods. Usually, they’ll spend their mornings in the coop/run and then I’ll move them out to a poultry cage in the backyard once everyone has laid and then complete...

    6 Week Old Guineas Escaping

    My second flock includes 15 chicks and 3 guineas. My plan was to give them outdoor time every day over the next several days and put them back into the brooder each night and then eventually start putting them into the coop at night with the older flock until they are well integrated. I made up...

    2 new peahens escaped... What should I do?

    Hi everyone, first time poster here. :) In short: I bought two new peahens this morning to join our peacock family. Despite getting their wings clipped this morning, they managed to fly off as soon as I opened their boxes in our pen (which has high walls, but an open roof out of necessity). I...

    Quail

    Quail. We actually wanted quail first. But as things evolve and happen, quail hadn't. We got fertile hatching quail eggs as a gift. Shipped in the mail. We were so over joked and excited. When I pulled the tiny carton from the box the little eggs were so cold. Of course it's winter. My heart...

    Chicken Trying to Escape

    Hello! New chicken owner here, and I have 17 chickens (1 Rooster 16 Hens). One of them is pretty old and is very small, and the other hens (never the rooster) will peck her head and pick on her. There is no visible damage on her head, and no missing feathers. However, whenever I open the egg...

    Chickens died trying to escape

    So we adopted two adult chickens three days ago because we only had one chicken left and we figured she needed some company. Both chickens had severely messy bottoms and irritated back sides and were very skittish of people. We tried our best to clean them up and introduce them and our chicken...

    Hatching Escape Plan

    Every day I erect a barrier fence to allow my flock to have the luxury of grazing and these two, Zoe and Tesla, always manage to escape my well devised, at least, I thought, fence. So moral of the story, chickens are smart.

    New to all this, scared birds

    Hi I just recently converted my shed into a chicken coop with run and this morning got two hens. I currently own four chickens that live with my dad's flock two hours away and they are being moved up this evening to live with my other two (we've only had them two weeks so still young) The two...
