    Hens big chest

    It turned out to be an impacted crop, we got her to throw it up. For future reference: give them water then hold her upside down and rub the bump around a little bit, they'll throw up a lot

    Post your FIRST EGG pics!

    Were all of them showing the signs like red comb, squatting, and nesting? And are they all the same type/ lay the same colored eggs? It was easy for me to see because two of mine started showing signs and only one layed brown eggs, so I got lucky :D I'm sure you'll find out eventually

    I love my baby Happy Feet! She's my fluffy little girl! Yes she developed slower, but it just makes her all the more innocent :) She's super sweet and a little jumpy, she lets me hold her and pet her but when I put her down she's eager to wiggle and jump out LOL! Love her!!!

I came home to the news that Sunshine had been in her coop making nests and hopping in and out of her nest all day. I went to check and saw nothing but a new nest. But! I looked closer and...

    Bedding for nesting boxes - please help :3

    Yeah I've seen that a lot but i didn't know how to stop them. I made them a little sleeping spot to snuggle in with a small wagon but they dont like it I'll try to block them off because I do want them to lay their eggs in their boxes not on the floor or something. Thanks for the tips
