    small eggs

    Do you know how old they are and how long they have been laying? I'm a newbie but I'm pretty sure that young pullets lay some funny tiny eggs until they get the whole thing down, practice makes perfect. My BO is a big girl, but lays smaller eggs then my BR who has been laying longer.

    Poor little wempy rooster

    That should say "wimpy"lol. I have kind of a dumb question. I have a little BO/ Faverolle mix rooster that is about 17 weeks old, and the poor guy is scared to death of my ladies.

    First Egg Countdown

    My Barred Rock, Betsy, just laid her first egg!! I'm a little surprised as she is only 18 1/2 weeks old! I'm thinking of making her a little gold crown! Lol, the other girls are green with envy I'm sure! She sang long and loud in the coop and then laid a tiny egg in the run. Lol

    Lol I can't wait to hear my little guy crow!! I listen all day to my neighbor's rooster crow, you would think that would inspire at least a squeak from mine.

    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    My husband was defiantly from city stock and my family was all country bumpkins, when we were young I used to tell him how much I wished we could get a little place out in the country. He would say he would hate having to get up before the sun to "milk the chickens". Now we are retired and have...

He is speedy and I have provided excaped and hide spots and so far he had done a wonderful job of not making himself a target for our 7 teenage pullets. But today as I sat and...
