Sorry for the confusion. They were pine shavings like you would put in most pet cages

Got home today from work and one of my hens had died. I have a small box in the cage that they like to lay in and dust bathe in. I found her in there and it appears that she choked on wood chips. There was a large chip lodged in her mouth and part way down her throat I removed it and it was wet...

Age unknown bought 3 as breeding pair, at the time the man believed them to be around 4 to 5 months. The molting theory sees most logical at this point, however I am still open to suggestion.

They appear fine healthy and in good spirits so I will give it time, our weather had been inconsistent got then cold maybe this had had an affect.

Well one of my hens has stopped laying, has not laid an egg for over a week now. I am at a little bit of a loss to explain why. Lighting conditions are good plenty of feed and water I keep the pen clean. They eat healthily and appear to be in good spirits. I have a box in the pen with the full...

I had a few there were too large for the rails and while they sit funny they rocked back and forth slowly and made it all the way to lock down with out and problems. At this rate sounds like either you turn them by hand or you have everything to loose with or everything to gain. So give it a go...

Today I will be setting up my brooder. I have wood shavings or kitchen no-slip sheets to use. I am on the fence as to which to use in the brooder. I am thinking I will put the wood shavings in then lay down the no slip ontop of the shavings then after a few days remove the no slip and let them...

Update... So it has been almost a week now. I candled the eggs this morning I will refer to the pointed end as bottom and the rounded end as top. So I could see a red glow at the top and the light at the bottom pretty much was opaque white. I am very excited there are only 3 eggs out of the...
