    One hen two different colored eggs or two hens?

    Thanks to all that answered. I am a newbie to chickens this is my first flock and the first time they layed eggs. I appreciate all the quick replays. It makes sense to me that there's are two breeds laying eggs.

    One hen two different colored eggs or two hens?

    Chickens not sleeping in coop

    Thanks for all the feed back. I use sweet PDZ for my coop floor and it has only been in it for a week. And I pick up the poop inside the coop every other day.

    It sucks that there might be mites. The coop has only been operational for a week. The chickens have only lived in it for a week and I completely painted the inside so that I wouldn't get mites. I'll try the bleach thing out. Thanks.
