My hens and I are all loving Purina Layena with the Oyster Strong System. They love the taste and I love that it's complete without having to buy and offer oyster shells separately. I often forget that I have an egg or two in my pocket, but with their strong shells, I have not had any breakage...
My daughter made me this egg skelter for Mother's Day and I love it. The problem is that the eggs sometimes fall off as they roll down but now with their Purina Oyster Strong shells, they don't break!
It looks like the official thread to post your egg photos is located here:

Our layers, Lucy (Columbian Wyandotte), and Olivia (Barred Rock) discussing the advantages of the Purina Oyster Strong System. In the background are our pullets, Dot (Speckeled Sussex), Greta (Gold Laced Wyandotte), and Winnie (Welsummer.) They are enjoying their Purina Start & Grow and are...
Our hens really like the Purina Layena Oyster Strong feed and come running when they see me refilling their feeders. I was a bit scared to try a different brand of feed as I had recently changed from Payback to Nutrena. I don't think it was the fault of Nutrena but the girls just would not eat...
When I first tried to print my coupon,a window popped up saying I needed to install Digital Coupon Printer. When I tried to install that, it told me I needed to install .Net 4. After I did those things, I was able to print the coupon.
The best thing is that Coastal Farm & Supply is having a sale...
Thanks Eggcessive! It's good to get some reassurance from knowledgeable chicken folk like yourself!
She is starting to show signs of improvement from the Corid already and has started eating a bit more. Tomorrow, I'll go ahead and give her some scrambled egg.
I believe my 5 month old pullet has cocci. She has diarrhea, is not eating her feed, and seems lethargic. We have been giving Corid since yesterday. I would like to give her some scrambled egg since she has been eating very little for a few days now but I found this on another site:

You are very welcome! I think that everyone has their own thoughts about what is safe. In general, the USA is especially careful and sometimes maybe overly so. For me, knowing fenbendazole is approved in other countries without egg withdrawal is definitely reassuring. I, personally, will be...
I have been researching if there is a withdrawal time for the eggs after using fenbendazole for deworming. Almost everyone on this board keeps saying you shouldn't eat the eggs for two weeks but I remembered reading that the UK says no withdrawal is necessary.
I finally found this post from...
Thank you for all warm welcomes!
I laughed when I read Drumstick Divas post "Reading your post, I'm afraid of Lucy myself" and felt bad when I read Urban Flock's post about having to give their Silver Laced Wyandotte away. Luckily, things are going good with Lucy accepting the two new girls...
A big hello to all you helpful people out there! I finally joined BYC even though I have been a lurker for two years. I have gotten so much wonderful information from this site that I thought it was about time that I joined!
I only have four chickens because we live within city limits. We have a...
