With over a dozen layers what are the chances that not one would lay an egg today?

Pretty good with all the rain we have had over a few days. They are not getting enough sun.

Never thought about that. It hasn't happened before. I just went out looking for a snake in the coop. Didn't find one. Also I've been giving them rooster booster for worms because I have a sickly 13 week old and don't know the cause that she is not eating.

I need some opinions...


I bought a bunch of assorted breed pullets from a hatchery. One was supposed to be a Dark Brahma

As she started growing, I realized she had some serious leg/foot feathering going on....much more than my other brahmas. I mean, this girl has SWEATPANTS!!!

I posted on the Brahma thread and the consensus was that the tail feathering, foot feathering, and actual feather color was more typical of a Cochin, but it's definitely not a Brahma. I posted on the Cochin thread and didn't get any replies. As far as I know, the hatchery does NOT have Cochins.

Anyone have experience with Cochins and have an opinion?

Gentry, looks like a nice Cochin pullet. I raise Cochin. Should have feathers on all forward pointing toes and yellow foot color.
