    Can you "carry on" chicken eggs?

    Hello All, I'm flying back east in a couple of weeks and my mother in law would be thrilled if we brought her some fresh eggs. Does anyone know if you can carry them on? Thank you! E

    Does anyone know how to keep your Jersey Giants a bit quieter? We have 2 nine month olds (among several other breeds) and they are the loudest and most agressive towards humans and the other hens. They are extremely loud every morning for several hours. I'm actually thinking about rehoming my...

    Worried about the elements

    We have 2 seven month old chickens. Their run is 6'x6' with a small wooden coop attached to the side of the run. During the day they have free range of the yard and we lock them up at night. The run has a wooden pole near the top for them to sit on. Before they started laying they would...
