    Share your egg management tips!

    So for me it's a quick rinse then wipe off with some paper towel then into the fridge we are having weird temperature fluctuations at the moment so that's my option, I think if it wasn't for that I'd probably just take them in put in an egg tray on the counter and be happy to leave it like that.

    Hi there hope you have been keeping well? I've changed things up a little and thought I would find out from you what you think of the design used here and if there is any other recommendations from your side regarding the roost?

    Nest box and roosts

    Would you recommend shade all year round or move it in the summer months? Where we have shade close to almost the entire day. I've only used steel on the sides and plastic back and roof.

    As you said she doesn't look like any Brahma you know and I'm sure you means with the white tips of the feathers it is odd also why are the new feathers such a strange colour instead of black?

    I'm sure you might be a teeny bit of a distance if they both turn out to be cockerels I'm kinda hoping for a pair as they are from different parents I was very happy with the quality of chicks when I purchased these 2 the gentleman who breeds them is very proud of what he does
