    Thank you for your reply! They seem to be staying up on the roost all day today (just got them yesterday). I think they're afraid to come down because the other hens are a little mean to them. I'm assuming this is normal and will pass in a few days?

    Me and my wife just added two roundhead hatches to our flock, they were given to us. At least that's what we were told they are. They seem to be getting a long okay with each other, other than the pecking order haha. Problem is I can't seem to find any information online about them other than...

    Roundhead Hatch chickens need info

    Just added what I was told were roundhead Hatch hens to my flock. Two of them. They're pullets and seem to be getting along okay with our other girls.

    We actually got a BIG egg this morning!! It cracked though :( she pushes all of the hay out of the way and lays her egg on the bottom of the nesting box which is all wood. Should we line the bottom with a small towel or something so that they don't break when laid?

    Hi everyone! Me and my wife have been proud backyard chicken parents for about 3 months now, we had 3 beautiful black stars but now have 2 due to a pesky Hawk! We've decided against free ranging and have enclosed their co-op and run to prevent any future issues. We finally got our first egg...
