    16 month BO hasn't been laying for months

    12 week easter egger Nora? or Norman?

    This approximately 12 week old easter egger was named Nora but I believe Norman may be better suited. This is my first little flock so I'm learning as I go. The good news is that whether Nora or Norman, it can stay.
