I never wear a mask but to be honest, I only have one rooster and 4 hens. Three of the hens I call the flying Wallendas because they are semi-feral and roost in the trees in front of Viggo and Goldie's safe house. I let the rooster and hen out in the morning and lock them in at night (they put...

I am not going to be popular here but nonetheless as a dog person here goes. Why was your first inclination to sue? Did you first contact the owner directly in a civil and grieving manner (as you clearly are) and ask for compensation AND firmly ensure this would not happen again? Was this an...

I live in Central Texas it's in the 50's and overcast. I have a question regarding winterizing for my flock. Two of my chicks/rooster are tame and I picked them up at the end of the day and put them in their coop until they learned to put themselves up. But I have 4 others (3 chickens/1...

As I am in to animal rescue I looked for a chicken rescue but came up with rooster rescues but not hens. Even checked my local Humane Societies and Best Friends. Agreed! Rescue is the way to go

He is strikingly beautiful!

I have 3 pit mixes and two other dogs of unknown ancestry. They all get along fine with the chickens. I say this only to give an example that maybe breed profiling should not be dismissive. Of course, all my animals (TNR colony of cats live on the property along with 2 rescued mini-pigs and a...

I never understood Mika, from Morning Joe, going on and on about her pet chickens but now I am sympatico! Viggo Roo is a Brahma Rooster offered to me because of his ongoin personality conflicts with another rooster at his previous home. What a wonderful guy he is, too! So I've been looking for...
