I have a blw that we got last Easter and she doesn't seem to be laying yet, either. I love to see these posts that say I'm not the only one. Our other hen (same age) lays in the coop, so Slacker knows where to leave them.

I love the color patter of your Brazoria Palm! Gorgeous bird!

Who ever coined the phrase 'madder than a wet hen'? My ladies are soaked and don't seem at all upset.

I got Red last year and I already forget what she is. I think she's actually two breeds.

So how young is "too young"?

I bought them four weeks ago, on Feb 1. They were this big then.

I suspect that they're cockerels

Warbeak and Sleepy. Warbeak is named after a sparrow in Redwall, by Brian Jaques.

This is an election year. It sounds to me like she's saying, "I don't want to be in politics anymore. "

Who introduced this? It sounds like something that an animal liberation group would try to pass.

I'm always interested in how people can tell these things. What are you seeing? The darker headed one is my guess because it's always trying to dash around when I have them on my chest.

We can't keep roosters 😞 so I'm explaining to them each day that they need to be females. I bought out their whole stock (all three). Why do you ask about roosters? Are Easter Eggers sex links?

They're Easter Eggers. I was amazed to see them so early. And SO excited! I LOVE raising chicks inside.

I had to pick up chicken feed today and I found the strangest thing there!
