    Molting - affecting young ones?

    History: I have 2 light brahmas that are 1.5 years old, and 2 that are about 30 weeks old. The days are getting shorter, so I added light to their coop to add a couple hours in the am and pm. About 1.5 months ago, the little ones started laying small, funky shaped eggs, as normal. Then...

    Has anyone tried Egglettes?

    I've seen these on TV, but have seen mixed reviews online. If they work as intended, even if I have to spray oil on the inner surface, I'm thinking about buying a dozen or so, to make hard boiling easier. Just wondering if anyone here has tried them, and if it's worth my time and expense...

    Hello!

    New to the forum. Been lurking for awhile. I'm also new to raising chickens, but I've already learned a lot here; thank you! Hope I can help others in the future, but I'm sure I'll be reading and 'learning as I go' for awhile first. I have three chicks, that are about three weeks old, still...
