I have a RIR that just went broody this past Friday. She was in a nest with no eggs so I picked her up and took her outside, when I looked again she was in another nest where all the other chickens lay. I picked all the eggs out and took her outside again. She just went right back to the nest. I...

I had 5 beautiful bared rocks until a week ago then I figured it was time for me to pay for a few things I did when I was young. Two of my girls were fighting over the position on the roost which is 7 feet off the floor ( this was between #4 and #2 or " cartman" ) and when they fell it broke...
