    One Egg?!? Are they kidding me?

    Besides molting, they say they need at least 12 to 14 hours of light - could this be the problem for some of you? I know here in Michigan it's getting dark at my house at 7:30PM ish...Sun doesn't come up till 7:45 ish AM I have a light with a timer in the coop that doesn't shut off till 8:30

    They don't like their new food???

    Thanks for your replies, I guess I'll wait and watch and see what happens. Now that some of them are laying I wouldn't want to do anything to stop progress

    Hi Everyone! I'm from Charlevoix, MI and have 6 BA's that are now 18 weeks old today! Hoping for eggs soon! I have a 40' X 60' garden (which I enjoy very much) along with hanging out in my lawn chair inside my chicken run - nothing more relaxing - my friends all think I have lost my mind...

    Oyster Shells and Grit?

    I'm a newbie, but my understanding is the oyster shells DO NOT take the place of grit. Oyster shells are only provided to assist in egg production. Does that make sense???

    To insulate or not to insulate?

    I insulated mine and it didn't seem to make that much difference believe it or not. I had a thermometer in there for awhile and it was the same temperature outside as it was in (I have lots of venting though). We'll see what this winter brings though....I have australorps and they are suppose...
