    Nightly gathering of chickens

    I've got windows on three of the 4 walls and it's about 80 degrees in the evenings. I wish I had a secure run to let them into at night but unfortunately not set up for that. I have worried it's the heat but when all of this started with my previous flock, it was much cooler.

    Limp Chick - dog attack

    She seems to be turning a corner! She's started to support herself and eat and drink on her own! She's still very wobbly and has one foot curled under when she stands. But I think she might make it!

    Limp Chick - dog attack

    She’s still alive but not showing any improvements in mobility. If i hold her i can spoon feed her liquids, but it’s day 3 and she’s still like a limp noodle when i set her down. She can flap her wings but cant hold herself up.

    Limp Chick - dog attack

    Trust me, i don’t think he’s gentle at all. He’s 150 lbs. I keep them separated at all times when i can, but she’s so little she slipped through the gate and i hadn’t noticed when I let the dog out this morning.

    Limp Chick - dog attack

    My 8 week old chick got out of her pen and fell victim to our mastiff. He’s prone to carrying around and licking chickens but has never injured one. This little baby can’t seems to stand up now. There’s no blood, no punctured and i can’t find a broken bone but she came seem to support herself...

    Hatching Peafowl - Totally new to this

    Do you think this is due to how the eggs are shipped? Or is there something else that complicates it?
