    What food to buy?

    Does anyone have any idea what food would be best to feed hens to extend their life? I don't care as much about getting eggs as I do for them simply being pets. I of course want them to be healthy, however I learned about Matilda the chicken that lived to be 16 years old, and based on all the...

    Retired hen is acting strange

    My 7 years old (I think she’s 7, I don’t know) is making weird clucky noises, doesn’t get outside to the yard, attacks my dog, and puffs up whenever anyone gets near the chicks (whom she didn’t raise and doesn’t even share a coop with), she would sometimes bark and charge, she circles the chicks...

    3 Year Old Chicken Gone Lame

    A three year old hen of ours has gone lame. She doesn't stand up or walk on two legs, but she can "walk" on her hocks/shanks. Basically she is sitting down and moving her legs forward, kind of like how a person can "walk" on their knees. She also pushes with her wings to do this. However, she...

    Old Ohio Coops... Chronicles of a Renovated Money Pit

    Funny thing about renovating this 1860’s coop…. I realized I am a TERRIBLE tracker of progress through pictures. But then… Hindsight IS 20/20! When moving to this Southeastern Greene County farm 8 years ago, this old building was moving well into its 2nd century and quickly...

    My Old Boi Scrappy

    So I have this old Japanese Quail who turns 4 on the 11th of November and he is still going strong. Many people find it crazy just how tame he is, as he'll happily take a nap on you and loves attention, as long as his dustbathing time isn't disturbed. :p You could probably do anything to this...

    Younger turkeys all attacking old female turkey

    The babies are around 5 months and at first we thought it was the young males trying to establish a pecking order but then noticed they were all going after an old female. Not sure if turkeys try to kill off older turkeys as an evolutionary thing? Thanks for any info!

    Roleplays

    I love chickens and spoiling them until they're clacking with enjoyment. However I have other hobbies. Like roleplaying and making jewelry. So tell me are there any roleplayers here? If yes, do you like common or unique roleplays?

    Hen picking on her 2 chicks!

    My broody hen hatched out a chick the other day and I decided I was going to buy more for her to adopt. She took them fine and now I have her in a big chicken tractor with 5 chicks. The chicks I bought were 2 weeks old so they're a little bit older than her chick. She took 2 of them fine but she...

    Question about raising.

    Does anyone have any experience with training 18 week old chickens or about that age? How hard is it to train them once they get that old? I've trained 9 of my chickens but I started them when they were at the oldest of 4 weeks. I'm thinking of getting two 18 week olds soon but would like to...
