    What is the best thing to mark eggs with you are trying to get your hen to sit on and hatch? I tried a permanent black sharpie but the next day all but one was rubbed off.

    RIR's should produce eggs for up to 7 years they have never laid more than a dozen or so per week between the 5 of them. I can't be sure but I think I have one that has never starting laying. Is that possible to have a hen that never lays eggs?

    I have been letting my 5 hens and 1 rooster out every day to feed on grass and bugs and such the hens are still eating plenty of layer pellets and none of them will eat the oyster bits I purchased so how do I get calcium in them do I need to buy liquid calcium I can put in their water?

    Olive Egger? Rooster?

    Most of the time you can hold them upside down by their feet and if they pull up they are hens if not they are rooster. This is how my Papa always did it and it was true to form.
