    One of my chickens is a jerk

    I have 5 chickens, all laying. I usually go collect eggs around 5-6 pm after I'm done working for the day while they are still free-ranging.

    Tiny Egg Thursday

    Soooo. The girls have been laying for 3-4 months now. I got 5 eggs from my 6 Barred Rock hens today. Of the 5 normal eggs, the average weight was 1.71 ounces. The tiny egg tipped the scales at 0.85 ounces. Is this normal? Thoughts?

    One broody hen and the rest won't lay.

    I am going to give a lot of information because I don't know what is relevant. Probably the most relevant piece of information is that I am new at this... I have 6 Barred Rock hens that are 29 weeks old. The hens free range from dusk till dawn and then get locked in their palace of a coop at...
