Amazing!! Thank you so so so much! I knew we would likely have flies but they are sooooo insane this year!! I will definitely try this!

Has anyone used PT Alpine on the outside of your coop and run for flies? I can’t find anything about if it’s dangerous for the chickens to eat the dead flies after they’ve been on the spray. TIA 🥰

Thank you! How exciting! That first egg really is like Christmas morning! Yes so very exciting!! I haven’t had to block anything off yet. Most of the time I’m finding eggs in the nesting boxes but I have found 1 on the coop floor, 1 in the run, and 1 under my porch 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

I do think I’m going to do that!

More of our girls have started laying now, yay!!! But we’ve had 2 eggs like this 😔 I’m wondering if this is normal for pullets when they first start laying? If it is not, what can I do to help?? Also, is this one egg, or 2?

I just cracked one of the bigger eggs yesterday and it was a double yolk! My daughters were so excited and thought it was the coolest thing ever!

Thank you!!! I will finish the bag of feed we have then switch them over.

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate all the helpful information! I probably will collect the shells also because when I decided to get chickens, I had no idea how invested I was going to be in every little thing they do 😂 I just love them so much!

We have a pre-fab coop/run and my chickens are let out at sunrise and put themselves back up at night. We usually leave the door to the run open and the sliding door to the coop open during the day and my girls are able to get to their nesting boxes that way. I’m wondering if I need to leave the...

Great, thank you!!!

Okay thank you so much! I do have different breeds and 4 of the girls are about 3 weeks younger thank the rest.

One of our girls laid her first egg! I am a first time chicken owner so I am very very excited!! But I also have some questions! Is it normal that it is so small? Is there anything special you have to do to first (or any) eggs? I have 11 pullets, do I need to wait until they’re all laying...

Hi! I am very new to ducks! Mine are about 10 weeks old (I think) and I have one ver lethargic, not wanting to stand or walk, panting heavily but not with mouth open, wings hanging down. Help please! I’m not sure how to get the video added here 🤦🏻‍♀️

Did not know this! Thank you!!!

Oh good to no! Thank you!
