    New layout

    I really don't like the "Recent Posts In Our Chicken Forum" section. Please put the list back to left justified. When it is centered it makes my eyes buggy. (Maybe if I tilted my head and just looked with one eye at a time it would be better . . .)

    The eggs are pale

    I have a mixed group of brown-egg layers. I just realized that my dark brown eggs are beige. Is this an over-the-winter thing or is something missing from their diet? They get oyster shell, layer pellets and all the weeds I can pull and an occasionally a melon or vegetable leftovers.

    Look what I got today!

    My eleven girls usually give me 8-10 eggs a day. But look what happened today! These girls were a year old on February 1. I cracked the egg open and the yolk was clear! What's with that?

    Something else roosters are good for

    We all know that roosters are good for protecting their ladies and keeping the peace, but they are excellent at preserving the neighborhood too. Look what happens to these rampaging rabbits!

    Hatchlings in the nest box!

    A friend sent this to me today. I love it. I wonder what those eggs looked like.

    Alpha hen question

    So anyway . . . I had a bossy hen that was really making a lot of noise every time she laid an egg. I had some hens that were getting pecked pretty badly just above their tails. I gave the noisy hen away. The next thing I know, the bald hens, who were starting to heal have red skin above their...

    Marking a hen

    I have a hen that is really LOUD. I have to put her up for sale on Craigslist. The only problem is that I put fingernail polish on her toenails so I could tell her apart from the others and then everyone pecked the polish off. What is a good way to mark a bird that the others won't zoom in on?

    Defendant in Oregon Dog Shooting

    What happened to the thread about the guy in Oregon that shot his neighbor's dog? Was it taken down on purpose, or is it just my problem getting back to it? I wanted to add the following after someone posted the dog owners address (maybe that's a reason for taking the thread down). If a...

    Another roo?

    I have a flock of 15 babies that hatched February 1st. One turned out to be a roo and was identified by fellow members here on the forum after I put up a picture. Luckily, I was able to find him a good home with two wives that are a little older, but about the same size, so everyone seems happy...

    What is this?

    Is this a rooster? What kind is it? It is 3.5 months old and is the biggest of them all. Since none of the others looks like this one, I don't know if big is indicative of roo-ness or if it is because of the breed. This one, besides being the biggest and the strangest looking, is the...
