    Broody hens

    Three of my five hens have gone broody. How can I fix this? All three of them will sit in the nesting box all day unless I pick them up and put them outside. Then they will run around for a little while then return back to the nesting box.

    Show off your roosters

    My three boys. We gave them away a few days ago because they were making to much noise to be in the city.

    Are Coops really needed?

    I built a coop for my chickens then I put a perch outside the coop for them. Now the only one who uses the coop is the hen that's laying. She only goes in there to lay her eggs then she walks back out, all of them sleep on the perch. So, are coops really needed? I have been considering taking...

    What breed?

    We added two more hens to our flock. Just don't know what breed they are. Any help would be appreciated! The white has already laid two eggs one on the way home after picking her up and another one today. They are small white eggs.

    Egg "white" is Pink?!?

    The egg was only a few days old. As for the link I just googled pink egg whites. I looked at three or four links and the all said it was a bacteria. I have no clue if that's what it actually is or not. The bacteria is on the egg itself. Caused by tiny cracks in the shell.

    Egg "white" is Pink?!?

    I did a google search and supposedly it's some type of bacteria that cause spoilage.

    Egg "white" is Pink?!?

    Ummm….this freaked me out a little. Our girl has laid approximately 1 1/2-2 dozen eggs. This is the first time this has happened, she has laid eggs after this one and they were fine. I threw away both eggs in the pan because I didn't know if it was safe to eat.

    Our first egg!

    Our new girl left us a surprise this morning! I wasn't expecting anything from her due to her being in a new flock. Hopefully they keep coming!
