my ladies are 4 months old, i got the on a crumble feed and in a week i'm gonna start them on layer food. i just made a nesting box for the four ladies. i put some hay in there to start there process . when should i start putting in a fake egg? or maybe they'll figure it out.

been on the delv food and there eating it but tried diff. other foods bananas and today strawberry's. they don't hit fast and kinda not recognizing it as food for a long time.

at 11 weeks or so i able get my birds to go in at night. at first (at 8 weeks) i was putting them in at night on by one then i heard that putting a small light on at dusk will get them in......and it works, had the light go on for 3 nights at dusk , yesterday i shut the light off completely...

i have months be they lay .....but when should a put in a dummy egg so they get the idea?

So for the last 2 day we kept our 4 ...8 week old birds that we bought cooped up. i put a light inside timed a 8pm till 930. hopefully they'll go in tonight. momma's got the detail making sure they go up tonight . I have to work.

i have 4 ....8 week old birds..... i know it takes time . the past 3 night we had to put them inside by hand. good thing or bad? should i let them do it them selves? or keep putting them in our selves. they just seem to cuddle on a corner instead of trying to go in.

there at 8 weeks. there on a 20% crumbles then in 3 weeks we go up to the next feed. should i stay with feed be fore i give them scapes? the last flock i had seemed to get spoiled with all the scapes and wouldn't eat the layer pellets.
