I have 5 hens and 7 pullets in a coop (under 4 months old) Yesterday I got 6 eggs and today 8. Are my hens laying 2 eggs a day? Or are my chicks laying?
I have 14 2 day old chicks that I hatched. One is walking on her hocks with her toes curled. They are very red and swollen. She keeps flopping on her back and can't get around very well. The other chickens are pecking at her. She is very cute and otherwise looks well formed. No sure what to do.
I am on my 1st hatch. There was NO ACTIVITY on day 21. I was loosing hope. Starting the afternoon of day 22 they started hatching like crazy. Today is day 23 and they are still hatching. So far 13 of 18 are hatched! Good luck!
Most eggs have pipped. I think I am going to have a great hatch. I don't see anything in my 3 green eggs yet. My prettiest favorite hen lays the green eggs. Keeping my fingers crossed.
