    Help with Slow Crop / Sour Crop Issue combined with Broken Soft-Shelled Egg

    5 month (or so) Jersey Giant / Leghorn Cross Pullet For Sale

    I need to sell this pullet... We have too many chickens. She recently started laying and gives us about 5 eggs per week so far and should become a very prolific layer of large off-white eggs.
