    Not an expert, but I would say they are on the smaller side. I'll just keep rolling and see what happens. Thanks!

    One of our hens has started laying. Nice, small to medium sized brown eggs. 1 per day since Sunday. I'm hoping my other girls aren't too far behind and we can have a nice celebration breakfast!! Since I'm new to this...will the eggs get any larger, or is this the size she will lay?

    Another rainy day in the piedmont this morning. My girls are eating me out of house and home these days. My untrained (lack of) knowledge tells me they are stocking up on nutrients to start laying! Stay dry all!

    Good morning all! I'm pleased to announce that after 7 days on the lamb, our "free range" chicken was placed back in the coop with her "sisters" Saturday morning. My wife would like to add a few more girls to our flock. If anyone has Silver or Gold laced Wyandotte's, we're in the market. She...

Over the weekend, one of our Americaunas decided she didn't want to be put back in the...

    When is it time to switch to layer feed?

    to the OP: Have you asked the local True Value if they will order you what you want? If they can get medicated, they can get other feeds as well. Just ask a manager if you can special order. I would think that being in AK, they may get lots of those requests. Especially since you may be ordering...

    Quick question....when I went out to feed the chickens yesterday I noticed that their food wasn't gone. Typically, the feeder is empty. I'm sure some of it has to do with the fact that I have switched them over to Layena (although after reading the article on the front page last week, I'm going...

    We spent the holiday weekend in WV, and those 52 degree mornings spoiled me!
