    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    Today was the first day of full production for us! We got five eggs from five girls, and two of them were their first eggs ever. Very excited!

    Volume by breed?

    Thanks ChicKat, I will wait a bit to see if things settle. Today the remaining leghorn hollered for "only" about two hours. I know my next door neighbor could hear it because she sent me a text asking what I was doing to the chickens (she's not the neighbor I worry about). Anyway, as of...

    Volume by breed?

    Thank you both. And yes, the leghorn I re-homed was the top hen in the house. In fact when I released her at her new location she went right into the middle of the flock of turkeys and gave them all the stink eye. I would describe her as brazen. If I had a larger and more secluded property I...

    Volume by breed?

    I live in a subdivision and had six chickens (2 ee, 2 white leghorns, 1 br & 1 red). They are all just over five months old, either the br or the red has been laying eggs for about a week. Yesterday I gave up on my one white leghorn and found her a new home because of her constant loud...

    Unsure of genders-Barred Rock, Prod. Red, Leghorns, Ameraucanas

    Thanks for the responses. I'm so glad my br is a girl, I was most concerned about her and Red. Illia-how do you tell the difference between an Ameraucana and an easter egger? I only ask because the store that sold them to us referred to them as Ameraucanas. Not that I think a seller...

    I had it set to private by mistake, it should be public now. So sorry, I'm new to all this

    Unsure of genders-Barred Rock, Prod. Red, Leghorns, Ameraucanas

    I don't know if this will work or not but I'm going to try to post a link to my photobucket acct so I can get some help with gender on everyone. When we bought the chicks we were told there was a 95% chance they were all pullets. But the more I read, and look at pictures on here, the more I...

    Hello from the desert!

    Hello from the desert!

    Just wanted to introduce myself to the group, I'll use the template questions since that seems to be the easiest way. (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? - We are brand new to owning chickens, just got the babies on September 4th. (2) How many chickens do you...
