    Many questions about dirt floor coop and Deep litter/pests

    I have never seen any evidence of a slaying, will the chickens kill it to eat it?because, that would be gross Or just because its there? I don't need to do anything to get rid of them in there, do I? All food, water and shells are hanging, so nothing touching the floor but overflow.

    Easter Eggers, No eggs at 23 weeks?

    So, she was laying again, 5 days this time, today a very small, very soft but still light green egg. Her shells are pretty thick, maybe she's just not a woman yet;)

    Easter Eggers, No eggs at 23 weeks?

    Right after she laid it she looked puffed up, uncomfortable & tired. Before she laid that morning she was fine. Today she is like her old self. We had 6 days of perfect eggs, the shells were pretty thick, but I'm used to egglands best, which has pretty thin shells. I'm going to read what you...

    Hi, thank you. I give her OS & ES separately in their run. They free range about 8 hrs a day. I also have food with os & es that I leave on the outside of their run with fresh water. I have sprinkled both shells around the yard so she can pick on it anywhere. I am lost on this one.
