    Boise, ID 1.5 year old Silver Seabright

    Thanks, Rikus! That is very nice of you. I may have to take you up on your offer yet, but I am still trying to keep her if possible. She is not vaccinated. The past couple days I have actually had her back out in the coop without incident so I am trying to see if she will be able to stay. I...

    Boise, ID 1.5 year old Silver Seabright

    Thanks for the replies. I am still hoping to re-home her as she is feeling better and anxious to get outside. I take her out for supervised time right now, however, all the other gals are still trying to get it her and her neck is still healing up a bit. I did make her a chicken sweater to try...

    Boise, ID 1.5 year old Silver Seabright

    Hello BYC Community! I have a 1.5 year old Silver Seabright that I regretfully need to re home. I have had her since a chick (last spring) and unfortunately her other 5 hen friends have suddenly decided to start pick and peck on her. She currently is recovering from getting her neck plucked...

    Different Hens--Different Taste

    That's very interesting that you are noticing a difference. Does the shell look different at all? What about the egg white? (runny, watery, thick, etc.) If there are abnormalities in the egg appearance, shell quality, albumin, etc., it could point to a disease or abnormality. Barring any...

    Is it true that sexlinks quit laying at earlier age?

    x2. In my flock, I had a sexlink laying steadily (4-5 eggs a week) into her 3rd year. Unfortunately, she was killed by a dog, so I won't know how long she would have been laying before dropping off.

    What sex??

    Looks like a she to me! A Light Brahma hen. Do you know how old she is? She might not be laying eggs because she is an older hen, or she might be stressed from her past and stopped laying because of that.

    Green Roof Chicken Coop

    I have often thought about greening my chicken coop roof, too. I have not done it yet as I still store a lot of stuff on top of the coop. Ideally, I'd have a storage area or box for the stuff on top of it, so that I could plant on the roof. I am interested in seeing what other people post about...

    Best time to clean my coop

    I usually clean the coop and boxes later in the afternoon/evening. Usually hens are done laying by that point so it's not a disruption to them. They love getting out and about to romp around while I'm working too :) good luck!
