It was a plastered Elizabeth and I was getting fustrated so a stumbled into the coop to find out they weren't eatting them. The egg I put in there had rolled behind the nest boxes. I am going with the assumption that it is too hot. Its been like 95 plus here lately with heat index over 105...

Thanks for the great tips!!!! I did not actually see them eat the eggs so I have a plan... I am going to blend up some margaritas. I am going to position my hammock under a shade tree. I am going to put a few more real eggs out there and watch what happens. The possible results: We will...

I have not seen a single egg from any of this flock. Their birthdates are 12-28-2009 for the hens I am concerned about and 3-25-2010 for the little ones. I have never seen any eggs, so I dont know if they are laying them then eating them, or if they are not laying them at all yet. The ones they...

Ok so I have been really studying my hens and found the problem. I put eggs out there and when they went to the nest boxes in the hours following, they ate the eggs. Should I now switch to golf balls instead of eggs? What do I do? Its not just one hen, they are all turning into hannibal lecters...

No they are definately not hiding them. I have looked absolutely everywhere. I do give them a lot and i mean a lot of scraps.

I have 5, eight month old hens (two sex links, two Aracaunas, and a buff orp). I also have 12 RIR that are 6 months old I raised them from biddies. I gave them Purina starter until they were five months, then switched them to Purina Layena. I do give them a lot of our left overs. They have a...

From Left to Right - (what I was told they were) - Mae, Hen, Barnevelder - Dorothy, Hen, Sex Link - Rose, Hen, Buff Orp - Blanche, Hen, Sex Link Blanche, Rose, and Dorothy (close up) The babies should be a mixture of "who knows what" ducklings, rhode island red (that im sure of) and two...

Sorry I now have an associate degree in accounting... left that detail out. But yeah CNA, associate degree in accounting, and I will be working in a pet store because I still can't figure out what I want to do. At least my husband is very supportive. Elizabeth

I am a CNA. I went to our technical college and got a certificate that took 6 months. I worked in a nursing home and loved it but it paid 5.25 an hr... that was 5 years ago. I then worked at our hospital and pay was better but it was 12 hour night shifts and they wanted me to work 6 in a row...

When I want drama but don't want to get involved with it, I go on Craiglist. I can see it from a far and stay out of it, but it is so funny an interesting. I think it is my substitute for a soap opera. Elizabeth

I worry about this happening to me. I live in a subdivision in the country. This "subdivision" fell apart a decade ago and is now comprised of 1/2 $20k trailers and the other half $500,000 houses. There was a housing association a long time ago but it dissolved and everyone is completely in...

Can't do the roos. My home is in the country, but I live very close to other homes. I don't want to upset my neighbors with crowing. If you ever have anything else, let me know. I am mostly looking for chicks or pullets, but any variety. Thanks, Elizabeth

Just saw this thread. WOW! I think people should have to take some kind of test before having kids, especially with a particular popular news story right now, think everyone knows the one I am talking about. I am 23 and have not had a child yet because I feel like I am not financially ready, not...
