    Sex change?

    Here is a picture of my old hen turned rooster impersonator. She is 6 and when she lost all of her flock mates, she grew a huge comb and started crowing.

    golden egg

    Yeah let us know. And I'm going to pain one golden and put in our egg box and see what my husband says when he goes out there. That would be a hilarious joke... if it works.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I'm really happy to see this picture. I have 6 pullets, two of which are BR. I have figured out which eggs three of the chickens lay and I thought I knew which ones my BR were laying. I know you can have different shade eggs within the same breed but I get two light light brown eggs and I...

    Worried about one of my pullets.

    I have one girl who is acting weird. She isn't real active today and stands with her rear rend sort of pointing up. I can't explain it but it isn't a normal stance. Today is also the first day since she began laying that she hasn't layed an egg. She laid 30 days in a row. I know its normal...

    First egg but...

    How long was it out there? I have had he kids crack an egg bringing it to the house. So far nothing has been leaking out so I just put it in the fridge instead of on the skelter and eat it in the next day or so. They have seemed fine to me.

    Pullets starting to lay this week- Few questions

    Mine do that. Especially the one that either isn't laying yet or has just started. I think they just are curious and want to see what you are up to and maybe get a little attention.

    Could I have a closet roo?

    I have been noticing white spots on some of the yolks. I don't know how some of you get such good pictures of them, this is my best attempt. This egg got dropped on the counter and had an indent in it but the membrane wasn't cracked so I just put it in the fridge for a day or so. It was a...

    Squatting

    One of mine stamps her feet so fast it sounds like a drum roll! She still makes me laugh when she does that. She did that for 2 weeks before she layed her first egg.

    "Big butt eggs"

    My amber white layed a an 87 g and the next day and 81 gm. I was worried about her. I don't want her to kill herself making eggs. today it was barely a large so I feel better.

    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    I totally agree. Life is full of consequences. Teach your kids those consequences when they are young and the consequences aren't that big. Don't do it, and the consequences are going to be a lot bigger when they are grown and you can't rescue them anymore.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    4/5 and one of those was really big, 88g. And I matched up one more chicken to its egg. My NHR was the first to go red and one of the firsts to squat. I thought she was one of my first layers but nope, she layed me a 42 g speckled egg. We don't keep the eggs long enough for me to compare...
