    I have a mostly Serama flock (with a few large fowl for eggs) of about 15-20 birds. They mostly free-range (with a closed/locked coop at night) in my small backyard in suburban Phoenix metro area. They've done very well with the exception of a few predators (hawks, cats and now FOXES - yes...

    My cockerel has gone missing

    My cockerel (Noodle) went missing this evening and I’m worried sick. I suspect he got into a fight with his father (Pingu) but noodle is nowhere to be found. He’s not in any bushes, trees or plants, not in the coop, under any benches or anything. Ive looked all over my garden for him and even in...

    The tale of Honey, the wayward hen.

    My sister keeps some chickens on a homestead in the rural USA. Last night, her favorite chicken did not come home, which was worrisome to all of us. This is her story.

    Bullying or something else?

    I have a total of 8 hens. 4 are Silver Laced Wyandottes. 1 of them is the dominant hen. The other 3 have feathers missing from the area where it would usually be missing from a rooster and it's very red. I have seen her mount other hens. No blood that I can see and no sign of pests that I can...

    Have You Seen Us?

    My neighbor's 3 new Cochins went missing without evidence of a predator attack, and we think someone stole them. She had just adopted them recently from Nevin's Farm in MA; we live in Southern NH. They were part of a group that was abandoned in a cat carrier. The two hens are Rose and...

    Missing Muscovy, predator or instinct?

    Hi all, this morning when I got up I am usually greeted by three Muscovy walking over to get breakfast but today there were only two. I'm pretty sure the one missing is a female as she is slightly smaller than the other two, but I'm new to Muscovy so I am not sure. There aren't any signs of a...

I ran...
