Hey everyone...I have a friend looking for some preferably dark brown egg layers. Anyone have a source they can share? I'm pretty sure he's wanting some that are close to laying or are already laying.
Sadly yes...not by any of her fault though. My other girls kept pushing her out her nest box and harassing her. On Sunday I found two of the eggs busted open with little baby chicks inside. . I was so upset but I finally moved her to a separate coop and she is now hatching out the one chick that...
Needing advice Louiisiana Peeps! I had a broody hen I just could not break so I decided to give her some eggs to hatch. She's been great and broody and then I get home a while ago and notice the egg door on the coop was open on the side she was brooding on. I went to investigate and she was...
Thanks to Pam for the hatching eggs! My little Momma was so happy and gave me that, "You're not getting these back!" red-eyed glare. LOL. It was also nice meeting you.
Hey y'all! Anyone have any fertile hatching eggs for sale that would be colored egg layers? I have a broody I just can't break so I'm thinking when you can't beat em...join 'em! I'm in Jennings so the closer the better. Thanks!
Don't worry about pricing....he's very savvy when it comes to that. He has an organic farm and you wouldn't believe the price people would pay for organic produce! He has checked out the market and part of his strategy is that he knows the colored eggs will sell for MUCH more...even though we...
Hey everyone! I have a friend who's raises garden produce, bees for honey, etc and sells at a farmers market. He wants to go in the "egg" business to offer that to his customers as well. What he's looking for are pretty colored eggs (blues, greens, dark brown) Do any of you have or know of...
Hey everyone. Just checking in to see how everyone's doing. I'm getting a little spring fever reading about y'all hatching chicks! Wish I could get some new girls this year but I'll have to wait till next year. My ten girls are doing fine. They loved the uptake in the temps a few days ago...
They just appear to be falling out and I mostly see them in their coop in the morning. I've never seen anyone pick a feather off her before bc she's normally the boss. Is there anything else I should be looking for? She's acting normal otherwise...
Pam, my hen is 8 months old that has the feathers missing. I was under the impression they wouldn't molt until after 1 year so that's why I was asking/concerned. However, I don't have any roosters and all the feathers are coming from the upper back of the neck....do you think I should be...
