    Ok! Thanks @junebuggena! I was planning on switching based on other things I've heard. I still have 2 bags of layer feed, I might get some starter, and mix them until the other stuff is gone. I have been giving them some plain yogurt to up the protein, but it also has a lot of calcium.

    I have a mixed flock and I notice that the EE's eggs are harder to crack than those from my other birds. It seems like they always crush. Anyone else have this problem?

    LOL! They think they are! They very seldom get canned fish!

    HA! Sounds good. I had it around for the cats. Maybe I'll switch them too!

    Thanks! I did give some canned tuna about a week ago, they ate it right up! Do you think the mackerel is healthier for them? I put out plain yogurt recently, but only the EE's went for that. Their bums are fluffing back up some.

    I will for sure! One of them still has a scab, so I'm waiting until she's completely healed to try to get them all together. I thought I'd do it when the day will be in the 50's so I can comfortably spend a lot of time outside to be sure it goes well.

    LOL @Latestarter , I know that can be common practice, but we are vegetarians! hahaha! I had read that curtains would harbor mites, but I might try your suggestion. The inside of the nesting box is painted dark brown, but plenty of light shines in the open side. Thank you!

    I only have 4 birds all together, I think the very top one started it and the beta copied. Should I just separate #1? Their run is about 10ft x13ft, before I divided it in half. They have logs and stumps and even a xylophone. The big coop is about 4 ft x 8 ft. They have free choice pellet food...

    About 2 weeks ago, my 2 EEs had their vents pecked bloody by my other 2 girls. I separated them, gave them an epsom salt bath and put pick no more on their bottoms. I built a backup coop and divided the run so that they could be outside while they healed. I gave them all extra protein and...

    My EE, also named Marshmallow, started at 33 weeks and my other started at 34. Yesterday was the first day that I got 2 green eggs! One is more minty colored and the other is more sagey colored, although the difference is slight. Good luck!
