    Do chickens ever lay their eggs around 6:30 PM in winter?

    At least 1 of my hens has been laying later in the afternoon since it has gotten cooler here.

    Am i overdoing it ? some people think im nuts, pics added

    We clean the coop and nest boxes every weekend. If it needs attention during the week we clean it also. I agree you can never be too clean. I haven't had to deal with any illness so I guess we are doing something right.

    Hatching is very addictive. I have hatched a bunch of quail and all 21 of my chickens. I can't wait till Spring because I'm gonna hatch more!!

    Can you MAKE MONEY with chickens?

    I'm not sure about making money. I raise Quail as well as Chickens. I sell the chicken eggs $2 a dozen. I pickle the quail eggs and sell them $5 a jar. This year I'm gonna keep track of expenses as well as money I make. If I break even on feed and supplies I'm happy. Raising my animals is more...

    How do you clean your egg shells?

    My eggs always come out clean. I agree if the nest box is clean then your eggs will be clean. I certainly reuse egg cartons.

    How to cull a chick?

    I'm glad I never had to be faced with culling. I would have to get my husband to do it. There is no way I could kill an animal. I would feel so horrible. I understand certain situations you have no choice, but my animals are my babies and I totally understand how hard this is to do. Good Luck !!

    Bad hatch rate with shipped eggs- RANT...

    I ordered Quail eggs and had great results. I ordered chicken eggs and had about 4 broken and only 4 hatched. The seller did agree if I pay shipping she will ship me more in the Spring. I totally agreed on the deal. I'm willing to try the shipped eggs again. I understand like many have stated...

    Giving chickens hard boiled eggs

    I scrambled my chickens eggs . I used the whites to make cookies so I didn't want to waste the yolk. They LOVED them !!
