    Whiting True Blue egg.

    Mine don't lay that early. It might be 10:00 or later. Also, you might need to wait for an egg until they've been on 100% layer feed for at least a week. Good luck!

    Hen with weak feet and legs.

    My Columbian Wyandotte Bantam 6 M/O pullet suddenly began to sit all the time. Upon closer examination, I found that she could barely walk, taking very short steps, and seemingly on her tip toes. She goes about 3 ft. and has to sit. She is eating and drinking but I don't know what to do to...

    I am so excited to show off my first blue egg. The others were laid by a variety of bantams. I had read a number of threads that had negative remarks about this breed, such as "small eggs", "no color", "green", or "very pale". Thus my excitement upon finding this egg today. My hens are only...

    My rooster is terrorizing the flock

    I would definitely isolate him until they are all mature enough to know what's going on. I have some in that same age group who are very aggressive. I have to keep a watch to be sure my hens are not injured.

    I am in Newberry County. I like the idea of communicating with folks near me. I have about 40 chickens now (way too many). My favs are the small bantams, but I also like the idea of having colored eggs. So, I ordered the Whiting True Blues, and I don't need 10 hens and 4 roos! I am wanting...
