    Hurricane season 2024

    Cheapest Egg Cartons?

    Has anyone found a cheap source of egg cartons for a dozen eggs? I’m giving eggs away since I get 6/day so I don’t want to spend $1 a carton on top of it.

    How long are eggs good?

    My sons new mower finally came and he’s mowing tonight. He found a cardboard box in our burn pile with about 2 dozen eggs in it!! Are they good? Do a float test on them? Or just discard?

    Double yolked eggs?

    My son was asking because we’ve been getting a LOT of these. If they’re fertilized and brooded will they hatch out 2 chicks or will only 1 develop?

    Aggressive Roos. What to do?

    I started carrying a rake with me every time I go feed. I just shake the rake at my roo and tell him "it's you or me boy, and it's gonna be me!" and haven't had a problem since. Its worth it since otherwise he's a good rooster. And it's only me. No one else in the family.

    Hens are Laying Now!!

    I had predicted Aug. 7 so it was pretty much expected. Anyway, now I need to switch them to Layer Feed right? And I have one roo— it’s ok if he eats it right? Up until now they’ve been on chick feed.
