    Holy cow! An egg inside an egg!

    So our hen has laid 5 of these eggs now. The largest one has been 6.5 ounces. Here is a video I posted of us cracking one open.

    Look at this! Egg inside of an egg!!

    Danielnv....I thought of that as well. Did you crack open your egg yet? Has your hen laid multiples as well? We just had her 5th laid yesterday. I thought this would be a once or twice occurrence but she just keeps on going poor thing.

    So this must be a regular thing with my hen. She just laid her fourth one! She seems to be fine. This one weighed a little less.

    Holy cow! An egg inside an egg!

    Ok we just had the exact same occurrence with our hen. We found this super huge egg a week before Easter. We thought she must have just laid an egg with four yolks because of its size. We hard boiled it and dyed it gold "The chicken that laid the golden egg". Anyway we decided to count the...

    Coyotes!!!!

    Ok, so glad I found this thread! A few weeks ago my eldest son was outside in daylight (3:00pm) and saw a coyote in the back with a chicken in its mouth. By the time he got back there it was gone and had got away with two of our chickens. Of course two of our friendly favorite chickens even...

    New Chick Mamma!

    I know how that is...I think we are going to end up with a few Roos from what I'm seeing. I keep telling the kids that we have quite a few chicks and that not all of them will be able to stay. I would try posting an ad on Craigslist as well. There seem to be lots of people looking for chickens...

    Our one week old chick is not doing well...help!!

    Well we lost our little chick this morning :( She seemed to be doing better last night and she no longer had issues pooping but there must have been something else going on. The kids are pretty bummed out. It's hard because you wonder what else you could have done. Bye Daisy. We will miss you!

    Our one week old chick is not doing well...help!!

    We found one of our chicks this morning letting itself get trampled on by the other chicks. When we picked it up we noticed it felt lighter and it would just lay wherever we put it. When I looked closer at it I noticed it had pasty butt. I cleaned it off, gave it some sugar water and isolated it...
