    Opening up the Nesting Box & Separating the Flock

    My chicks are about 13 weeks old. To date, I have blocked the nesting box off to prevent them from getting used to sleeping in them. (I have two of the backyard pre-fab coops for my 6 pullets). I have 2 questions: 1 - When do I open the nesting boxes? I have 2 spangled hamburgs which supposedly...

    Soft/thin Shelled Eggs Overnight off the Roost

    Hi All, I’m a bit worried about my Olive egger. She was egg bound with a soft egg twice in the last couple months to the point where I gave her warm bath and brought her inside. Thankfully both times the rest came out. I added oyster shells in another dish to the coop (it’s in their food too)...

    Stopped laying

    I have 9 mature hens. They went through molt last fall and began regular laying again. About 2 weeks ago they stopped. Not 1 egg. There have been no changes, the same food, same coop etd. Any thoughts??

    I have 4 RIR hens who are all about 2 years old (I also have one leghorn who is about nine months, but she lays consistently). I only get 2 eggs a day (usually) from the RIRs and I’m not sure why. I have tried a few things. I’ve been supplementing with higher protein chick feed, but it hasn’t...

    What the world?!? Eggs???

    I just wanted to make a post because I'm surprised and a little confused. I ordered day-old turkeys from a hatchery that were delivered April 5, 2018. They were a broad-breasted mix. I butchered all but one white hen. I also have a black Spanish. On August 31, I purchased three Red Bourbon's...
