    Is this a first egg?

    Found in the coop, very soft, filled with fluid but has a sort of rough texture to it. Don't know who left it there, have three girls who hatched mid October, wondered if one of them was starting to form eggs. Found it a few days ago but no new proper eggs since.

    Number of eggs to smoke out a broody?

    I have a silver wyandotte that must be very hormonal as she has spent more time sitting on nothing than actually laying eggs. Each time it seems to go on for weeks and each time she picks a different spot. Also have a RIR who is exactly the same age and has not gone broody once, but does have...

    What is a good breed for kids? Where to buy?

    I have a RIR that chatters the whole time, and is friendly but doesn't really like being picked up, A lovely gentle silver wyandotte who will also hang around and doesn't mind being held.
