My Olive Egger ended up laying chocolate brown. It’s a pretty egg, and I was a teensy bit disappointed. Luckily somehow the 3 BYM chicks my hen hatched last year lay green eggs. I just want happy healthy hens also, but different colors are nice…seems olive eggs are not a guarantee.

Hopefully it will improve enough! I switched to all-flock when the chicks moved in, and by about 14 weeks I think I started mixing in a few scoops of layer until the pullets were all old enough for the full switch.

@DonyaQuick I switched from all-flock to layer and I think egg quality is better as well. They also get a scoop of BOSS and whatever produce, dairy and meat scraps we have.

Can you put up something to separate the brooder but still allow them to see each other so there is no freak out?

We had it bad yesterday but today seems slightly better. I’m hoping this clears up soon. I couldn’t breathe when waiting with the kids being picked up at school.
