Connecticut!

[NEChickenNoob]

I have been considering guineas, but managing them . . . I don't know if this is the place for them. We have runners. And the ticks I have had have shown up after I have been elsewhere… There are ticks here, though - this is Connecticut!

I'm on 7 acres about 1/4 mi off the road. Looking forward to their tick riding abilities developing.

Boy or girl? Silkie x. I'm leaning towards boy but hoping I'm wrong.

Too early to really tell.

Hey everyone. Does anyone have a peahen they are willing to part with? My friend has a rescued peacock that has reached sexual maturity and is starting to take a bit too much interest in the chickens. We need to get him a girl friend.

I have for sale a pair of lovely Dutch Hookbills from Holderread if anyone is interested. They are a very rare breed of duck from Holland that lay a green egg.

I wish I had peafowl just wandering around my yard. But then it'd have to be a nice big estate to isolate the screaming......

Maybe the rescue can go wander the estate at Westbury Gardens in NY.......first place I ever saw peas and they looked so appropriate in that grand setting.

Hope someone has a girl for him. Poor guy.

So my chickens were attacked by something 2 days ago. One of my ameraucanas is missing. I haven't seen any of her feathers around but my australorp had plenty of feathers on the ground. Thankfully she is ok but I do miss my little "Honey". My neighbor down the street is also missing a young RIR hen. I am very worried about the rest of our hens because someone mentioned that someone was stealing chickens. I hope it isn't true.

Get a lock! Get a electric fence! Get a taser! Get a gun in case of 4 legged predators!

We bought 2 game cameras when we got chickens so we could see what came poking around. Cabelas has some pretty inexpensive options as well as fancy ones. We've seen a lot of wildlife and also use them to keep an eye on the driveway etc when we're gone. Might be helpful to figure out what's going on.
