    Lavender Orpingtons? Are they rare?

    I have 2 LO hens. I've heard they need more protein, not sure how true that is. But it is possible it's helped my hens. I got them from a breeder. One is normal size and the other is smaller than Orpingtons normally are I think but she fluffs out pretty nice. :) Otherwise very healthy.

    Hurricane Preparation

    Until I got my coop fortified a bit for nights, I (ok it was my husband mostly) hauled in our 6 hens each night. We used one of those really big plastic crates. (40 gallon?)

    Name suggestions for coop/farm/acres

    Ya'll have such great name suggestions. I am STUMPED on what to name our acreage in particular what to put on our egg cartons when I start selling eggs. Here's some info that may help so there's no "green acres" suggestions. :) Its a semi-arid, mostly treeless area (except for a few in the...

    Show me your countertop egg holders!

    Thanks! I've hear with the metal frame skelters that eggs don't slide down on their own when you take one from the bottom. Do you have to push the eggs down a little or do they go on their own?

    Do Cockerels Squat?

    The squatter (Ferocious Sparkles is his/her name, I have a 5 yr old who did the naming- can you tell?) is the darkest one in the middle of the 3 (in the single picture, the one looking at me). His/Her comb was red early on, wattles came in big and red. The one on the left is my second guess...
