    My hen is vomiting yellow-brown liquid and has green slimy poops PLEASE HELP!!!

    I live in the same area and wish I would have found this sooner. I hope you've found the problem and were able to remedy it. There isn't a specific thing I could say to help except give love and support. I recently had to put one of my sweet girls down from a severe vent prolapse. I just know...

    Sapphire Gem

    This is my first group of chickens and they just started laying a couple weeks ago. They were 16 weeks old when they started. One of my four SGs is laying huge eggs. Mostly double yolkers, but yesterday an extra extra jumbo egg. Broke it open for breakfast today and it is a triple! From what I...

    The very first egg was teeny tiny and a double yolker. It was a huge surprise. I'll be happy either way. I'm just stoked we started getting eggs this last week. Not regularly, but I'm happy with whatever we can get! All four SGs laid their first eggs between 16 and 17 weeks if that helps anyone...

    Our first full size egg from one of my SGs. Pictured with a large store bought one for size comparison. I got lucky and watched as she laid it.

    What is a sapphire gem?

    I thought the same thing. But it is lovely creamy light brown. This egg is my first EVER. Can't wait to check the nest tomorrow.

    What is a sapphire gem?

    My SGs are way less flighty than my EEs. I expected the opposite because I hear EEs are more friendly.

    16 weeks + 2 days, my sassy girl Cersei layed her first egg this morning! Feeling extra happy that it was in a nesting box in the coop and not some random place in the run. This is my first egg EVER. I'm so full of joy!

    Expanding a store bought coop

    I'm in the same boat as the OP. I added an extra run to the end, but the coop is way too small. My 6 girls aren't even big breeds, Sapphire Gems and EEs. I am inspired by your idea. Thanking you, even two years after this post was put up, haha.
