    Poop stains on eggs

    My hens just started laying eggs. They have learned to use the nest box for laying eggs only; however, sometimes their are poop skid marks on the eggs. Is this normal? If so how do I clean and store the eggs? If this is not normal, what could it be?

    So we are about to move and there is an old concreted dog kennel on the property. We were hoping to use it for our flock. Currently, we let them free range in the late afternoon but probably will not for the first few weeks so they can get used to their new home. Any thoughts on using the...
