    At what age do hens Stop laying?

    I have two that are now at double digits (I think 11 and 12?) That lay still. Definitely not much, especially the younger of the two, but at least 1x a week typically. Thankfully the older of the two likes to go broody, so she doesn't have the strain that laying more might put on her

    Irresponsible cat neighbors?

    If a microchip company goes out of business, the owners have to register to a new company. If they don't, an animal can still be microchips, but not have any info when scanned

    Has everyone seen Chicken People - the documentary on Netflix?

    I liked the silkie breeder personality and loved the set up of the silver laced Wyandotte breeder

    Hen hatched eggs and killed chicks

    I had a hen that didn't like chicks after they hatched. Great nester, but she'd kill chicks

    Rooster's eye has a white mass

    It might be pus, it's hard to tell from a picture. But mine wasn't pus. I didn't do anything besides just watch him

    Greenfire Farms Experience to date

    My order was great, I got what I paid for, and they seemed healthy. But they are one of the places I may have gotten Mareks from, and just the overwhelming amount if negative reviews is nothing to shake a stick at

    Opinions?

    I think at least one is going to go. I'm torn on the other just because she's pretty and I liked her dad, but honestly, there isn't a reason for me to keep most of my birds other than obligation and because they're pretty. The one that's going was for a project, but since I can't sell or give...

    Most of then will eventually either be eliminated or pass from old age, hopefully in the next couple years

    Opinions?

    I guess I should add too, these birds aren't young, I'm pretty sure one is 2 and the other is at least 3, so I know it isn't just those weird flighty puberty hormones that some birds have. One does have flighty ancestry, but still no where near where she is. The other came from decently calm parents

    Opinions?

    Honestly I don't have an ideal flock anymore. I'm getting out of chickens for the time being, but because I have mareks, I have to put down birds instead of just giving them away. Just makes it harder since you wouldn't know my birds are sick by looking. They certainly act healthy. I guess the...

    Opinions?

    I need to cut down on my chicken flock. I can't move them to other owners, so it will be by putting them down. I have two birds I'm debating about. I really like them, but they are so panicky when I'm around. They get along great with the other birds so they do have a good life when people...
