I am a 79 year old retired heavy equipment operator from Oregon.
I spent most of my career building logging roads with a D8 dozer for a local saw mill
When I retired I got interested in gardening and it is one of my favorite hobbies.
My wife and grand daughter wanted chickens.
I didn't want to...
They are a little lest than a year old.
As far as treats, they get a little hen scratch and a little stale bread.
BTW, they are free range. They run around on the property.
We only have 2 RI Red chickens.
One is a prolific layer.
The other will lay eggs with a nice firm shell at times and at other times she will drop eggs without shells.
By that I mean eggs with the membrane only, on hard shell.
The have laying pellets and oyster shells available.
What is going on...
