    Hens stopped laying after neighbors dog killed one

    I had 4 Easter eggers that were each laying an egg almost every single day. a couple weeks ago a neighbors dog killed one of them, since then the remaining 3 haven’t laid a single egg. Is this normal? Are they just traumatized?

    Cockerels?

    I’ve read too much about identifying the gender of Easter eggers and I’ve confused myself. I was almost sure all of these were cockerels, but again, I’ve confused myself. They’re around 12 weeks. None of them have crowed, but I do have one that is very dominant and crows a lot

    One chicken staying inside coop

    I have one chicken that’s not coming out of the coop with everyone else. It seems fine, not injured. It’s not sleeping, just sitting in the coop. It’s been storming and raining all day, is it possible she’s just cold and doesn’t want to be rained on?

    Adding to flock

    If I get day old chicks from a hatchery, how old will they need to be before it’s safe for them to go in the coop with other chickens? Will I need to wait the full 6 weeks so they’re feathered? I’m in Texas so keeping them warm outside isn’t an issue.
