    32-week old cuckoo maran not laying

    Can you see the inside of her nesting box? Is it possible she is eating them? I have heard of chickens doing that. They even love the shell. Just a thought.

    CHICK NAMES?

    We just hatched five chicks last night. Two were yellow so the kids named one Buttercup and the other Sunshine. And three were Welsummers, so they named them Chipmunk, Brownie and Hazelnut. Lots of fun! Enjoy!
