    Ida at 2 weeks old. We believed it was a pullet when we brought it home. Mr Ida at 6 weeks old. We now know that "she" is a "he" - a rooster! Mr Ida at 10 weeks old, in full command of his hens.

    Question about homemade soap?

    The soap is great and works good for me. I passed it on to several people and they like it. A friend of mine thinks she is allergic to the felsnaptha. Is there a substitution she can use?

    Roosters tearing feathers from hens. What can i do?

    I can't help you, but I think my rooster did the same same thing to one of my hens. I got so upset and it was below zero I brought her inside. Good news is the feathers are growing back. I hope you can get a better answer!

    I can't control my rooster and he is drawing blood

    I did give him a couple of kicks, but I don't want to hurt him. So no one thinks I should just let him out and free range and let nature take its cource? I can not just out right kill him or any animal, just not me.

    I can't control my rooster and he is drawing blood

    Quote: I do and and I will but he just kept coming on me. It is kinda a small pen but I don't think he should do this. I have never shown any kinda fear for him and I will kick him but I fear of hurting him and the others. My chickens are precious to me including him.

    What to do? OH what to do! About my sons pit..

    No, I am sorry, I had a couple of people that were interested in him, but then backed off. He has never bit anyone or has even tried. Sorry about the misunderstanding. If he bit me he would be one sorry dog afterall I feed him.

    What to do? OH what to do! About my sons pit..

    Update on the pit. I still have him, I got a couple of bites but no one serious. I have a question though. I got him a dog igloo, so can he stay out when it's below freezing or should I bring him in? I did manage to get a large kennel if he needs to come in at night. Any recomendations?

    Using Diatomaceous Earth?

    Yes, DE is great and has worked well on the chickens for me, but I did have some problems finding it close. When I found it I did get the 50lbs. so I am hoping it will last for a while. I did also hear that humans can consume it for their own worms, which many people have and don't know. I...
