    2.5 yr old hens, extremely watery poop/diarrhea, but normal eating/energy/activity level

    No red in their poop, just clear watery substance and a few of them had some small amount of a normal colored solid although it was watery due to the amount of liquid. I will try and get some photos but I haven't had any luck so far.

    2.5 yr old hens, extremely watery poop/diarrhea, but normal eating/energy/activity level

    thank you. Since the pullets and laying hens are all in the same pen, will it be okay for the 11 week old pullets to drink the same water with the Corid in it? or will I need to try and separate the two groups again?

    Midnight Majesty opposite pairing/ Black Marans with cream egg?

    I will be getting my first marans in three weeks, so I cannot speak from experience yet. But I was told that their eggs would get darker after their first adult molt. I am not sure if this helps your question, just sharing some information that was told to me.

    UPDATE: SHE IS SICK!! SUGGESTIONS? UPDATE: Is there a chance a production breed will never produce an egg? see pics of our girl

    I have a Blue Andalusian that didn't lay her first egg until 53 weeks old. All her flock mates (same age, same breed) were laying at 6 months. She just took her sweet time. But now she is a consistent producer, and I am glad I did not relegate her to the soup pot too early.

    How to stop chickens from eating eggs?

    As many have already said, sufficient calcium from food, oyster shell supplements, or dried eggshell; soft bedding for the next box. I was unable to alter my nest boxes into roll-away and the attempt at curtains scared my birds away from box. When my newest hens started pecking at and eating...
