THIS is what I'm feeding my hens as well. I get the kind that has that wheat berry. It smells great. They are kind of spoiled though. I notice that right away, they seem to be digging something out, but haven't figured out yet what exactly nuts or berries that is???
I tried that one time (confining them inside the pen). THEY WERE VERY ANGRY, AND ACTUALLY GOT UP A COMMITTEE, HEADED BY DANIELLE, my meanest Golden Sex Link! They were squawking and fluttering around. You would have thought that they were going in the pot that day! I finally just let them out...
One time, I did find a snake eating one of my blue eggs! It's not around anymore. I HAVE found that they like to lay inside a large planter in my flower garden. They also lay inside the garage. Lately, I've only found 1 or 2 eggs though. I tried to bring four new Easter Eggers, but a raccoon...
OK, N3mesis,Hi! I've got a problem. I have 6 hens of a variety of breeds. I only get 1 or 2 eggs a day. My oldest chicken is about 2 years old, and it looks like they're just not interested in laying eggs anymore. They're free range, always clean water. Any ideas?
I haven't painted in years. Most of mine is...uh..."out there." LOL
UFOs and the like. I like painting on glass with enamel, but have painted with water colors and acrylic.
You bet! I planted Sugar Baby watermelons and STILL don't know if they came up or not. In my frustration, I fear that I've done something unforgivable... I planted some cantaloupes in their place! At least THEY have come up now. Or.... now, maybe it's the watermelons???
So nice to meet another chicken lover. I only have 7 laying hens, and four Americana babies. From oldest to youngest, their names are: Sweetie, Sugar, Joy, Danielle, Ruby, Bubbles, Peanut, Zoe, Thelma, Flowers and Buttercup. Love.
