    Green Egg white, Do I get some ham?

    My husband was peeling our boiled eggs from our instant pot today, and got a green egg white. What causes this? Safe to eat or spoiled? I read in a few places it may be from high levels of riboflavin? Thanks for any help!

    First eggs!

    We finally got our first eggs, today! We’re pretty sure the little green one is from our Easter Egger, Cleopatra. The large light brown one we are unsure of, could be from Charlotte the Barred Rock, Bindie the Australorp, or Cupcake the Buff Orpington. My son was over the moon to have found...

    Books about Laying and hatching eggs

    Thank you! I have been looking for a basic overview of the whole process since this is our first flock and I have no experience with them.

    New chickens, 1 unhealthy

    New chickens, 1 unhealthy

    I am giving them the layer pellets, mixed with some grower pellets, as well as whole grain corn, oats, and sunflower seeds. I have also been giving them meal worms in addition to allowing them to forage. I also put a little bit of oregano oil and ACV in their water.

    New chickens, 1 unhealthy

    We have a young flock of chickens, and last night took in 5 RIRs (3 years old) that were about to be homeless, or dinner. We have them in their own coop, quarantining, but one of them looks VERY unhealthy, and I don’t know what it would be because her symptoms are all different. She has...

    Olive Egger pullet…or not?

    Thank you, I will ask which hatchery they use. This store is not a Tractor Supply, it is legitimately a small, independent feed and everything else store.
