    Barred Rock cross...with what?

    I have mostly Leghorns, and those head pics look exactly like a leghorn face, but leghorns have much larger combs.

    These birds are some of the best egg layers! And, previous experience, they live quite a good long laying life...

    ive learned that if you hang it about an inch off the groud it eliminates the cleaning time by more than half. we only need to clean ours out when theyre close to being empty then we scrub them just before filling everytime.

    Egg Breaking

    ive only heard of chickens eating their own eggs when they arent getting enough of the right nutrients, almost like they are eating them as a substitute or if they get fed raw egg. are they being eaten or just broken?

    Extremely soft egg?

    my chickens diet is mostly layer feed and corn. (cracked or on the cob usually) and theve been getting into our fresh garden cucumbers everyday. theyre eggs are always hard as rocks. and we cracked the 4th one ever laid today and it was a double yolk! hope this helps...

    My chickens are making me mad!!!

    if you dont mind me asking..what do your boxes look like? we had some trouble with that too then we put a higher peice of wood on the front of the boxes so when they scratch and burrow they dont lose so many shavings. i think the carpet idea might be too hard to keep clean?
