    Preserving first chicken egg?

    I know this sounds crazy, but when one of my chickens lay their first egg, is there a way to preserve it? I want to keep it as a memory, and I got the idea since my grandma had a emu egg in her display case. Thank you!

    Plastic Bin Brooder, and preventing fire with heat lamp?

    Chick Taming, toys, and treats

    This was very helpful, thank you so much. I am currently putting my hand in the cage with food on it, and they go crazy and climb all over my hand (I guess they think it’s special food, but it’s just they’re regular starter haha).
