"I had a dog/chicken incident and our mean rooster had his leg injured. I splinted it with popscicle sticks and surgical tape so he could bear some weight and get around. It took a few months before he lost the gimp but he was fine! It humbled him…"
"Thank you for the help. It is comforting to know that this has happened others and there is great advice out there. She is drinking a lot and eating here and there. Her coloring is great.... really red comb and her legs are nice and yellow as…"
"One of my chickens was injured recently when my dog accidentally ran her over while chasing after a tennis ball. The chicken ran right into her path and was basically trampled. Big Red emerged with what I thought was a broken leg or at least a…"
"I had a chicken that hurt her foot. I wasn't sure if it was broken, so I didn't do anything. She hobbled around for a while and then she started using it again. It was a while though. Surprisingly she was able to get around quite well. She…"
"Here's what I would do if I wanted to save her:
Isolate her so the others won't pick on her. Keep her quiet and warm (maybe in your house, at least in a draft free area). Offer food and water. If she won't touch the food, put some electrolytes…"

Happy New year to everyone. I came home yesterday and my chicken is not walking on 1 leg. I checked the leg for a cyst or infection and there is nothing. Her leg is moving but her foot is not, it is just hanging there. Has this happened to…
"They stopped right after the last big rain we had. I don’t know if that scared them. I can’t think of anything that has changed. I went out and check, no sticky stuff to be found. I have not found any remnants of egg anywhere in the coop or the run.…"
"LOL! It is funny how much joy a few hens can bring to a house hold. That is a great point, however. I do let them out about 1 hour before sun down but I stopped on about the 4th day I realized there were no eggs. My kids and I did do a good once…"
"Are you hens free ranging? We had the same thing happen twice. Both times we found a place they were laying eggs. The first time, it was under the tarp we put over our bail of hay. The second time it was in a lawn and garbage bag. I had pulled a…"
Hi,I have 3 great chickens, RIR, Easter Egger, and I think a Leg Horn, the store told me different but I am pretty sure it is. All 3 have not laid in 9 days. Is this normal? They are all look very healthy, clear eyes, great coloring. They…
"That is a great idea. I will have to see what my hubby thinks too. Do you recommend any particular breed that does good with heat and children?"
"I have one RIR & Araucana. I love them."
"Stretching is perfectly normal. Can you add just one more chick now (while they're young before pecking order is established) for "insurance" purposes? Chickens are extremely social. If one dies later, then you'd unfortunately have a lone chicken."
"What kind did you get?"
"Thanks. Can't wait to see their warrier pose. hee hee :)"
"All birds do yoga. :)"
