    Crystals on the egg?

    I've noticed these hard bumpy crystal like things on one of my hens eggs. Always the same hen, and sometimes they are everywhere, other times not so much. Should I be worried that something is wrong with my girl or is this something that's normal?

    first 2 eggs!!

    Got the first one yesterday and then another one today! I think it's my maran, since she has the biggest and reddest comb, and I understand they start out small, but will the color get darker as well? The 2 on the right are from my hens, the left is store bought.

    My Delaware....is?

    I have a feeling you will tell me this is a rooster, the last week we have heard crowing in the coop (just one crow, almost like a "let us out"), and when we just let them out this morning we saw the culprit crow once again.

    Soy Yogurt?

    I know I've read on here that people give plain yogurt to chickens, but can I give plain Soy Yogurt? I have some left over after making ice cream and would hate to waste it.

    When to use a nest egg.

    My 6 girls are about 10 weeks right now, and I'm wondering when I should put the fake eggs in the nesting box. If I put them in now will it be too early and cause confusion later?

    I'm new to BYC forum (long time reader first time poster), and new to chickens. I just got my 6 girls a little over a week ago, and my question is....what time is bed time?
