    Dark Brahma still not laying at 22 weeks? Notmal?

    Thank you ! The EE is laying but the RIR are too little they are like 3 mo this old still smaller than the EE not laying yet. I just introduced them so Rock is probably trying to dominate 🤷🏻‍♀️. He had mostly left them alone after the first few days

    Chickens in nature

    I would love to let my chickens run free. I lost 2 in a raccoon attack last year. They roam all day. They go I to the coop at night and I lock them in. I have 1.5 acres and lots of hiding places
