    Opossum attack

    Even my horse vet tells me a good possum is a dead possum. They carry a bad virus in their poo, same with coons. I always keep my Mr. Shotty loaded and ready. I incubated 5 eggs and one hatched this morning. I'm sure the rest of coming, I hear them. Keep up the good work.

    New girls laid one

    I have seen rubber eggs many times as that is their first one. This time I didn't see it but I think it's quite normal. Your feed is wonderful. Once they start laying they are the best layers as far as I'm concerned. Are you safe from fire?

    Rooster attack

    I'd put him in the pot. Somebody gave me two guineas. I raised them and the male started attacking my favorite laying hen. I gave him 2 days to shape up or ship out. He b gone.

    New girls laid one

    Hi. Is it common for a new layer to lay a nice egg then not the following day? It's been in the 20s here. She free ranges but I don't see any laying around. She used her nesting box yesterday. Been a while since I had new layers. RIR

    Counter vs Fridge what are your rules?

    if there is any debris i rinse them, dry them and put them in cardboard IN THE FRIDGE. I would not buy any eggs left on the counter but that's just me.
