    Poor Egg Condition

    Who collects the eggs? Are they shaking them?

    Chicken acting strange after laying soft shell egg

    The oystershell will help her pass the eggs for sure! If its very hot where you are, this could be the reason! I think when this happened to mine, it was when the weather changed here in Atlanta.

    Nother Cream Legbar Question....

    From the faces I see here in this photo, they're all female. None of them are Cream Legbars though... a legbar cross, definitely. The brown one in the back looks larger than the others but it could just be the photo. It's the only one I'd be suspicious of.

    Chicken acting strange after laying soft shell egg

    I have a legbar that does this... same age. When it happens, she drops 2 softshell eggs within hours of each other. She looks horribly uncomfortable when it happens. I haven't figured out what triggers it. All her needs are met... safe, excellent nutrition, calcium, clean water, minimal stress...

    5 Week Old Lakeshores/Olive Eggers

    Thanks! In my head I know that but since they're sold as a "Lakeshore" I was quick to call it a breed. I know there can never be a SOP for them. Do you know what they're using as the crosses? I know they're legbar but I'm curious what other breeds they're using. I haven't been able to get or...

    Post pics of your legbars!

    Curious... do your legbars faces and combs turn lighter and deeper red based on their mood? I have one girl that when I bring a treat to the coop or if she is mad at another hen or if she wants to be picked up, her face/comb get bright bright bright red! The other legbar, Henrietta, not so much...
