    Pink fluid?!

    I'm not an expert on this subject, but chicks usually take 21 days to hatch, so it may be a chick trying to pip. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

    #1 & #2 What breed/gender? Mixed Pen

    I'm almost positive that it's a hen, and it may be a Gournay crossed with a silver laced wyandotte. https://www.starmilling.com/poultry-chicken-breeds.php look for gournay. Happy chicken keeping! :p

    Eglu Omlet... Thoughts?

    We're thinking getting an Eglu cube (buying online tomorrow for full use coop), and we went through a bunch of reviews on the omlet website and off. We think it's a great choice!

    Rainy, rainy rain-rain! Suggestions for build?

    Perhaps considering purchasing a plastic coop, like an Eglu or snap Lock. The rain can't damage those! Also, great ventilation! I'm about to purchase one like in the pic below, and I did my homework on them. https://www.omlet.us/shop/chicken_keeping/

    Covering the run?

    Perhaps string bands of reflective tape across the top of the run, w/ 1ft-1/2ft gaps in between bands. hawks and other predators in general do not like these bright colors.

    My blue egg layer laid a white egg today, is that OK?

    So, it's basically normal for Easter Eggers or whatever breed you have to lay white eggs occasionally, but if she displays any abnormal behavior, there may be a problem.
