    Fragile shells

    They have access to oyster shell at all times and I crumble up egg shells and add that to their feed. I'll have to look into a mineral supplement. Thanks!

    Broody Australorp?

    Well dang! Makes me wish I could have a rooster. Maybe I'll find some fertile eggs to put under her. In the meantime, it would be nice to have the eggs she's sitting on hahaha. We have 5 lay boxes, but all of them like using the one she's in. Now I'll have an egg hunt too :lol:

    Runny poop

    A couple of my chickens have runny yellow poop, what's the best thing to help them? I don't have a vet that nearby that I can take samples too and I don't necessarily want to just treat with antibiotics but it's 2 of my 6 birds so I want to help however I can.

    What breed and do you think it's a roo or pullet

    The person we got it from said it wasn't a leghorn but wasn't sure what it was. It's about 5-7 weeks old. Any ideas as to breed or gender? TIA
