Hi!
I have my golden cuckoo Marans in a pen by themselves because I have been hatching their eggs. One of the eggs hatched out a white chick! Has this happened to anyone else? All the other chicks are the right color and I got them from Meyers hatchary.
I used a syringe to empty the egg and then fill it with my mixture. They are the only ones I am leaving in the nest boxes. They are for the egg thief not for my omelet . if she gets a taste I am hoping she decides they aren't so good.
I have 80 hens. They free range 1/2 acre and locked in 5 10x10 chicken houses at night, Because the coyotes kill any living soul left out over night.
I have had an egg eating hen for 2 years now and I have tried everything! Roll away boxes, feeding more protein, feeding cooked scrambled...
I have at least one chicken eating eggs and making a disgusting mess of the rest of the eggs. I have 2 ideas.
1. Empty a few eggs and filling them with red food dye. Then I know who the culprits are. What then😐 ??? Born free maybe 😂
2. New plan: empty the eggs fill them with something they...
