yes. if you notice that you're chickens sneezing and have crusted over nostrils they most likely have a cold. If it doesn't clear up in a couple of days, separate you're sick chickens from you're healthy ones. I may not be just a common cold.

Yes. Any type of bird could spread avian influenza. Chicken and other poultry are not uncommonly infected, especially in Asia. This is partially due to their overcrowding in poultry farming and their close proximity to the some Asian households and people.

No, chickens cannot contract the common cold that humans get (rhinovirus). However, chickens can and do become ill from avian influenza (various influenza viruses related to the viruses that cause the flu in humans).

Yes. Most breeds of chicken are cold hardy and will go out during the winter. They will stay in areas covered with hay and straw as most hens do not like to get their feet wet in the snow but some breeds do not mind a walk in the snow. Free range hens will wander from the barn into the barnyard of all but the most blustery winter day.

Yes, chickens can get cold feet. Even specially bred chickens like Cochin with feathered feet will be effected by cold temperature extremes. Provide proper bedding in the coop where the chickens can keep their feet under their own body for warming. Combs and wattles can also be frozen without proper shelter from the extreme cold. Certain breeds are more adaptable to cold weather environments.

Yes. Avian influenza is very contagious among birds and some of these viruses can make certain domesticated bird species, including chickens, ducks, and turkeys, very sick and kill them.

Why teach my puppy to use puppy pee pads instead of just going outside?

It depends if you have cold weather and you have a small dog. The dog might not want to go outside into the really cold weather. That's why people would use the pee pad. Going outside you need to teach them to let you know when the go to go. My opinion you might want to teach the puppy both so when its to cold to go outside it can use the pee pad.


When can you put chickens outdoors?

After a couple days, you can let your chickens outdoors (assuming that it's warm out and not raining). You can let them run around for a few minutes, but not for too long or they'll get cold. They can go outside longer and longer as they develop feathers. They should be fine to stay outside in 2-3 months.
