My third hen is laying! This is an egg from my Maran, Bluebelle. I was watching my hens early this morning while sitting outside and drinking my coffee. She started singing her hen song and continued for about 45 minutes. Then she hopped in a nesting box and laid this egg. Not as dark as I...- KallippidesKoop

This egg came from my White Leghorn hen, Snow. She has been laying since August 2nd. It's huge. I'm guessing it must have a double yolk. I don't see how this gigantic egg came out of that little hen. Here is is in the carton with her others and the ones from my Rhode Island Red...- KallippidesKoop

Buff Orpington Hen or Roo?
Ohhhhh nooooooo! I can't believe this. I have given away more roos than I have hens, and at this point, I only have 10 chickens total! Thank you both, Chikenobsession and RoostersCrow,HenDeliver! I guess I'll be looking for two more homes or going to a swap meet next weekend.- KallippidesKoop

Buff Orpington Hen or Roo?
These are the first two BOs that I've ever owned, and the man I got them from thought they were hens. Maybe he's right, but I'm really not sure. They are about 4 months old. The first three pics are one chicken, and the last three are the second chicken. If they are roos, I have to rehome them...- KallippidesKoop

Today I fInally heard the "hen song" that several people have mentioned. My White Leghorn started laying this past Saturday, and has laid one egg every day since then. Today I went to check on her around noontime when she normally lays her egg. She was singing "Bac, bac, bac, bac, bac, baaaaac...- KallippidesKoop

My best friends’ 13 year-old daughter is staying with me because I'm currently on crutches and wearing a knee stabilizer due to a torn meniscus and also because I need a little help around the house, especially with my dog, cat, and ten chickens. Yesterday, she was feeding the hens while I was...- KallippidesKoop
