To Louis & the Crew:
I have not checked the web site for awhile until today, when I read your entry on the snake problem. I hope by now you have conquered the snakes! If not, I will tell you how we conquered them. We cover our chain fencing with netting that you would use to cover fruit trees...

Thank you for your reply. I have been trying to find out the answers to my questions and I am a new user of this website, so I thought I would try it.
I find the website kinda hard to get around and find what I want. Do you?

Thank you for your reply. You are probably right as far as stress goes. I had to go out to the coop tonight and put them all on their roosts. It is way past dark and they were still on the ground. This stress has really messed them up.
We have a chicken who has been laying eggs with no shells. They look like an egg and feel rubbery, but there is no shell on the outside. Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
Also, we had 2 Rhode Island Reds, (Cinnamin and Sugar), 1 Plymouth Rock, (Speckles) and 1 guinea hen. We lost Cinnamin...
Very pretty wreath. You did a great job!
Just to add to this, I smash up the chickens eggshells and give them back to the chickens. Saves buying oyster shells and it helps with their egg laying.
