There are threads about single yolkers how many you have gotten per day. How about how many double yolkers you have ever gotten? I have gotten 2, each from a different chicken.
I got my first egggg!!!! Well technically it was laid on Tuesday afternoon, but i hadn't had a chance to get on here! So, my chickens laid an egg on tuesday, then thursday and we also got one today! So, that's pretty good right? Whoever laid it only skipped one dayy! I'm so eggcited!
So here...
My chicken Chrissy is at least 20 weeks old by now and still no eggs.
She clucks alot and has a big red comb and wattles and she also is squatting but still no eggs. Is something seeming wrong here to anyone. She has been squatting for at least 2 weeks now....
Everyone has these and I want to make one too! So here are my girls, but first a little bit of background...

Chrissy- New Hampshire
Georgia- Production Red
Moe- White Silkie
Sunshine- Buff Orpington
Rusty- New Hampshire
Flash- Black Polish
Gracie- Black Polish...
We keep straw in our run so that the chickens don't tear the ground up too much, but last night we had an awful rain had to have been an inch or more. So this is the first time it's rained this bad since we had them in the coop! Its all muddy now, so I took the old straw out and left there be...
Well, I got my 4 new chooks from a farm, and 2 of them would run around and free range, and 2 were inside, because they were smaller. The ones inside are my 2 black polish. The ones outside were a BO and a NH. They are all girls. But I can pick up all the chickens, (the chooks from the farm are...
Well i suppose that one of my girls could be doing an egg squat but i don't know what that would look like. She's a New Hampshire, and I read that they are supposed to lay sooner than other breeds? Her comb and wattles have started growing again I can tell you that, she has these gigantic...
So, last night i go out to the coop to lock up for the night. I find 4 of my 7 girls on the roost, one by the door to the run (that's normal, she's always there) and one is on top of their waterer, and the other is in the window! So, I got the one off the window and picked her up to put her on...
I have 5 different breeds, and all of them are from 2 1/2 months to 3 1/2 months old.
My question is when will..
New Hampshires
Polish
Silkies
Production Red
and
Buff Orps
start laying?
Any and all help is appreciated!
I will take pictures later, but here's my story. So we started out with 6 chicks. They grew up together and got along just fine. But 3 of them turned out to be roosters. So I had one NH, 3 Production Red and 2 silkies, 2 of the Reds were roosters and one of the silkies was too. So last night we...
I have a biggg problem. One of my chicks has been getting ticks on his face, and it's really a pain holding him still (he's really skittish)
and another one of my cockerels has on right on his bottom eyelid, and it looks like he's been trying to get it out. Its all swollen around his eye. Does...
Definite roo that I have, (well, cockerel) the pullet is 9 weeks old (Chrissy) and the cockerel is 8 weeks old (Eggbert). Tonight he was running/chasing Chrissy and grabbing the back of her neck. She was running around trying to get away. This cockerel has to go!!! It started out he was just...
I am finding feathers around daily. There is no blood anywhere, just feathers in random places. I went out in the run this morning and i saw 1 NH red feather and 4 silkie feathers. I constantly find my NH's feathers out there. What can I do to stop the feather pulling?
