I'm feeding Helens Best Layer Pellets, and supplement with dried worms, black oil sunflower seeds, and veggie scraps.

Hello, I have a 6 month old Welsummer pullet who started laying 3 weeks ago. I'm concerned because she started laying so late, and she has only laid 2 eggs since she started lying 3 weeks ago. Is this normal? She always has access to calcium, fresh food/water, private laying boxes, & a...

It's been about 6 days on step 2 but I broke down a few days ago and fed them, and let them out today to forage. It's now only two hens that I'm worried about and they happen to be the lowest in the pecking order. Tomorrow i might try to let some of them out and leave the the two that aren't...

I did and I'm having difficulty with step 2. I actually left it as step 1 for a month, and now step two is proving to be scary for them. I hope they catch on soon.

I have 3 and none of them have a comb so sounds like the consensus says they're EE's! I hope that's the case…I'd love some colored eggs

No comb to speak of so far and she's 7 weeks old…her brother also has no comb coming in

Help! I bought 10 new chicks and 3 were sold as Golden Laced Wyandottes, but I'm starting to doubt that. Take a look at this pick and let me know what you think. The breed in question is the brown/gold one. Thanks :-)
