give the two big chickens a right good telling off
Battery cages are where you keep chickens in for meat
Well to begin with, the turtle digs a hole and lays her eggs inside it. Unlike chickens and birds, turtles dont sit on their eggs to keep them warm, the sand does it for them. BTW Incubate: Sit on eggs in order to keep them warm and bring them to hatching OR Keep eggs at a suitable temperature in order for them to develop.
No, a chicken is an omnivore. This means it eats both plants and other animals. Mainly a chicken will eat wheat and grain as well as small bugs and worms. I keep pet chickens and they love to eat all sorts of things, they'll eat anything if you give them half the chance. I caught my girls tying to eat polystyrene once!
you should keep your lower body raised up .
Yes, you can keep snow in a refrigerator. However, it will eventually melt as the temperature inside the refrigerator is not low enough to keep it frozen indefinitely.
Pecking the childcleaning up and taking care of it
Chickens are very active birds. When they are not sleeping or setting they eat. They will peck at everything hoping it is food and even when it is not they will keep pecking at it hoping there is food within. If you watch them carefully they often peck something not edible and toss it away. Chickens live by the rule "if it moves, grab it before another chicken does"
Keep watching and see when your chicken is back to normal. Keep it quarantined for about a week longer, then place it back with the other chickens. If your chicken appears ill again, remove it right away. A sick chicken will most likely be picked on by the others, especially those on the top of the pecking order, and get the others sick.
a block that the birds peck to keep their beaks sharp
You should put a chicken wire mesh fencing above where you have the chickens. An owl cannot swoop down and grab the chickens through the wire mesh.
You can keep Silke chicken with other chicken types. Like all chickens, they may not get along.
Chickens prefer to live in flocks. A flock ideally has around 10-15 hens and 1-2 roosters. Chickens are very social animals with a strict hierarchy. The phrase "pecking order" comes to mind when one thinks about chickens! Because they are a domesticated animal, one can keep a flock of nearly any size as long as you have more than 1 chicken, as they get very lonely.Multiple roosters can be an issue if not separated as they will fight for the alpha male position constantly, sometimes killing each other. Hens usually have a spat to work out the pecking order and usually not fight again unless a new hen is added to the flock. Chickens are directly related to the jungle fowl of the asian rainforests and in the same genetic family as pheasants.
Um, they don't................ Trust me on this I keep chickens.
If you have a little land you could get some chickens they eat lots of bugs and you can have eggs to eat too.
there is a curved point at the end of the beak of the chick,use animal claw clips and chip it off.that teaches them not to do that.hope i could help :) *edit* I would watch the chickens closely. Usually the chickens would peck at another chicken to establish a "pecking order". If the chicken has open wounds, try to find a poultry-safe antibacterial spray or salve to put on it. Depending on if your birds are meat chickens or egg chickens, and if you keep them free range or in some type of run or coop, I suggest not clipping the beak.
its adaptation help keep animals from pecking or human picking at it.
Normally male goats fight to keep their domonant roll in the pecking order, or they fight over the does/dams. Sometimes it is hard to tell if it is a fight. Even does fight to keep their roll in the pecking order.
