My 1 yr old cochin was fine when i let her out at 6 this morning. At 7, she was in the laying box. At 9, she was dead on the coop floor?!!! I had been worried about how she was going to deal with the extreme heat this summer (Virginia). It's been in the high 90's. She...
My OEGs have been very vocal, friendly, and fearless. One got a little too bossy for me, and had to move to another coop. No problem with the others. Willingly fly up to me to be petted and loved on.
She's a bantam Old English. She comes into my office with me on cold or wet days, and just sits at my desk. Never causes trouble; Alwaysa wants lovin'. .. Is there something i should do?

What is happening with my sweet little Sparkle? She's been laying for about 18 months now, and this started today?!
I dont know how to turn the video. Just 'cock' your head to the right...
The first two I can live with, but ChAINSAW?????
i hear ya, nonny. i've got one named..."sandpaper"????!
unfortunatly, with the second batch, i was determined that we wouldn't name them until they showed some sort of personality trait. 9 months later, and we're still calling them 'Polish'...
hmm, jjthink, i'll consider separating her. and try the rescue remedy thing.
Again, today, she is the only one still on the roost. Then again, it's cold and rainy out, where the rest of the hens are hanging. Maybe she's the smart one.
i really think she's fine physically. pooping, and eating (separately) all look normal. She hasn't started laying yet.
i'm a city dweller. 5 chickens are our limit. i didn't think chickens could tell their breeds were different. I figure, a chicken just knows it's like the other chickens...
Hi-
I think i have a depressed chicken on my hands.
She's a 5 month old Cochin, and came into the flock as a new born, with 3 others. I have 2 older girls that are the head honchos. Everyone's a bantam, except Cochin. She's a BIG girl, and looks like baby huey beside the others.
Cochin is at the...
This morning, she was fine. When i came home a few hours later, i found her sitting beside the water trough, with her head resting on it. Her vent was protruded and drippy. I watched her for a while, and out popped an egg/. (So i know she's not egg-bound) She's never laid an egg "in public"...
I am giving away my 14 month Old English Game banty hen, because she's a mean little thing, and pecks the hell out of my new chicks. She pecks me too. Time for her to find a new home. She's a good egg layer, and very healthy, and will sit for petting, if she's feeling it.
