    Paper-thin egg shells

    I also have a hen with this problem. She gets the Purina Layena. I give them a bowl of oyster shell that is knocked out by hens and scattered considerably. She now is about 3 but has always had this issue. Lays extremely well but eggs are cracked and opened by other hen. Perhaps I should...

    I found the Nevada group. Wasn't hard at all. Thanks for mentioning the state groups.

    Nevadans?

    Hi, I'm an Arizonian too. Miss it greatly. Grew up in Prescott. I've had a long transition to getting use to this heat as Prescott rarely gets about 100. We had mountains and some of the area was considered high desert. I know I am spelling this wrong but I have "Americauna's", Delawares...

    Young chickens breaking older chickens eggs.

    We put straw in our nesting box's and have found they will hide eggs in that some, but they haven't in a while. At night they are in a 6' square dog run with a nesting box which is up off the ground. They have free access in and out of nesting box when they want but we keep the pen closed...

    We started back up with chickens about 1 year ago. We had a few when we lived in a cooler climate but have heard we could have them in a hot climate as well. We have learned so much more this last year than we ever had known before. Thanks to the internet and groups like this. Finally decided...

    Young chickens breaking older chickens eggs.

    We wanted to add a few new chickens. We only had 3 hens and only wanted around a dozen. We went and bought 10 chicks (5 Delaware and 5 Americana's). We were raising chicks in a building until they got large enough to be put with adults. We had 3 adult hens. I can't quite remember how old...
