    Hen open mouth breathing

    When I had an egg-bound hen, she was perched on the nest box, open mouth breathing. She stopped doing it after I got the egg out. No other symptoms.

    Surprise! Cuckoo Marans instead of Ply Barred Rock?

    I got surprise BCM in a hatchery assortment. They didn't tell me what any of them were, and this breed was unfamiliar to me. All of a sudden I started getting these GORGEOUS dark brown eggs and figured out what they were.

    4 rescue hens 1 month no eggs, any advice please.

    My ex-bat girls took a LONG time to get healthy. Months. Mine are white leghorns and their combs were pale and floppy, and they just looked crappy. A year later, they are exactly like my other chickens. They lay monstrous white eggs.

    Had to hit my rooster with a scoop shovel today

    Yeah, I don't feel like a rooster is worth any behavior modification efforts. They are either decent and continue to live here, or annoying and get a hot bath, with a side of dumplings.

    Had to hit my rooster with a scoop shovel today

    I have a rooster that is too big for his britches. I mean, if he had britches. He came at me today while I was scooping old straw out of the coop. So now you know why I picked the scoop shovel. I think we are having him for dinner on Saturday.

    Advice on clipped beak girls...

    In my case, I rescued a bunch from an egg battery. Since they live in a space the size of a standard sheet of paper per bird, they don't want the chickens pecking each other to death.

    My recently laying hens are making me go on Easter egg hunts. Maybe it's in the air.

    Got my first green eggs....

    I would love to get a few hens that come from rose or blue egg stock. I am positively nutty about having different egg colors. I am hoping my BCM's hurry up and molt so the eggs get dark again!

    Got my first green eggs....

    After the animal attacks of 2010, I thought I would never raise an EE to maturity. We got the chicks on April 9 and the first green egg showed up on September 18! Yay! I really wanted blue or rose eggs, but I am thrilled to have the green ones!
