    Using ink pad to stamp eggs

    Okay everyone - I bought a rubber stamp handle with a custom saying on it for my egg cartons, however, I practiced using it on some of my eggs to see what it would look like. From the information I have gathered, I will not continue to use the ink pad to stamp my eggs, HOWEVER, I want to know...

    Ayam Cemani Roo x Lavender Ameraucana Cross?

    Also, regarding the white hen pictured in my first original post of this thread, i gave her three fertile eggs because I noticed she was fighting to sit on the ones that FiFi (black hen from original post) was already setting on. She went over to the three i put in there immediately and tucked...

    Awww that is funny! That is awesome that you haven’t experienced that flighty/aggressive behavior. I’m hoping I don’t have that with all of these new babies!!

    Beautiful flock, btw! How are their personalities? My AC is VERY flighty and skittish. Can’t even get near him.

    I hope that mine are nice and sweet, too! Fingers crossed they do not get their personality from my AC roo.

I have two separate coops, the two hens and the rooster that I attached pics of to the original post are ones that I adopted and...

    AC Rooster and LA hen are not pictured. The pictures above are of the three I adopted, unknown age/breed. However, from a previous thread I posted, it seemed most people suspected the roo to be olive egger. Just was not sure about the two hens. Also, it turns out the white hen was broody too. I...

    What breed is my new rooster

    The one little black hen that is kept with him (breed unknown) actually just went broody, so yes we will see what traits come out of this hatch! I just posted a new thread with pics of this roo's two hens that he shares a coop with.

    Ayam Cemani Roo x Lavender Ameraucana Cross?

    Hi everyone! One of my hens has gone broody. She was a rescue so I have no idea how old she is (young, if I had to guess), what breed she is, or if she has done this before. I currently have two coops in my backyard. The smaller coop is the one that this particular hen is in along with another...

    Why did my hen eat her own egg ?

    there was some shell left, it was not thin enough for me to notice but is very possible that it cracked upon exit

    Why did my hen eat her own egg ?

    There is a lip on all of them now, this was taken while he was out cutting the wood actually haha. Thanks for your response! The egg was actually broken and eaten in the box she laid it in. I’m hoping it broke accidentally and she just decided to eat it then!
