    Tell me I’m making the right choice 😔

    My flocks have mycoplasma. We are moving by the end of the year. I enjoy hatching eggs and selling chicks. Thankfully there were no sales over 6 weeks before I brought home the unknowingly infected bird. Even with a 30 day quarantine, we know MG/MS infected birds are carriers for life. No...

    Who gives what?

    Hello all! We are going to start breeding in/out colors/combs/other things in our French Black Copper Marans. My questions are, Does hen color influence chicks more than rooster color? Does hen comb type influence chicks over rooster?

    Eggs

    Ok so my grains asked me to post a question on here. Her hens have ceramic eggs in laying boxes but the hens lay on the ground. My hens all (except my speckled Sussex) grew out of it. Anything else she can do? Sometimes the hens are laying in the roosts too, so they end up with broken eggs.
