Last night, someone went into one of my secure coops and broke the necks of one my table egg (eating egg) Easter Egger hens. I use EE's for eating eggs only. A have several breeds in that coop just for eating eggs. Someone must have hopped the fence, went in, snatched the hen and broke her...
My Blue Ameraucana girls have finally all started laying. I have a Blue Rooster and Blue hens. However, they do carry a gene for black and sometimes splash. The last experimental hatch I did last yielded three blues and one black. Eggs are available based on what I have on hand:

I have a hen. She has gone broody. However, she has gone broody in a nesting box with an imitation egg. I put those in the nesting boxes when I first started my flock so they knew where to put their eggs. I worked great. Now, I have an EE, who has decided to monopolize a nesting box, while...
You know how schools/parents give their children a flour sack with a smiley face that is supposed to be their "baby". Well, I did a BYC twist on it. My daughter loves Plymouth Bar Rocks. So, I went to the feed store today and got two. My son, likes his chickens on the lighter side, so two...
Found a dead chicken today. It appeared as if it were trying to pass something out of its vent. However, whatever it was didn't exit. Not being the expert, I buried it. I wonder if got egg bound?

One of the chickens was caught pecking at an egg in the nest. She was caught before she could consume it. I am concerned this will lead to egg eating, and I will end up having to eat her.
As the title would indicate, I have been all over the web, and have ended up more confused than educated. I am relying on the wealth of knowledge here to winnow down to the folks out there that have a reputation of reliability and quality. I am in the process of building a coop that can easily...
I may be off base, but I consider chicken flocks like a fish tank. There are certain breeds of fish that won't mix and will kill each other, or do serious harm.
I view chickens the same way. Various temperaments won't work. I was initially going to maintain my 6 EE's in another coop and the...
I probably shouldn't have created a profile while half-asleep after a long week and a long day. So, apparently, I will be keeping a "Roster" or all Cogburns or some such.
Anyway, I have been lurking for sometime and decided to join. I have learned A LOT from this sight. It has helped me...
