We are looking to replenish our flock, and are wondering where to get them because hatcheries have a minimum and we don't need as many as their minimum is. Looking for laying purposes. We would like one Araucana, One French Black Copper Maran, One Olive Egger, and One Standard Cochin. With a...

I have a flock of 7 laying hens that I've raised from a week old - GLW, EE's, OE's, Australorp/Welsummer. They are in their second year. We also have 3 (2 hens and 1 roo) seramas. Everyone runs together and they do fine. I feed a mix of crumbles and pellets so everyone can find something to eat...

My young GLW often lays slab sided eggs. She's happy and healthy and I'm exhausted from trying to figure out why, haha. I'm hoping it is just her being young - her first egg was a double yolker. My question is what is this semi solid white thing on half of the yolk from this slab sided egg. I...

I have a GLW and she started laying a few weeks ago. Her first egg was a double yolker, she has had a ghost egg (had a yolk), and generally was laying daily, or close to. Then she had a slab sided egg. I know it was her because she's my only brown egg layer so far. We have a 8x10 run, 4x8 coop...

I have seen that there are no Black Laced Red Wyandotte Threads. So I figured I'd start one. I have a BLRW named Mona Lisa. She is sweet but has a bit of an attitude, which I don't mind. We got three of them one for us and two for my grandma. Their names were Dwight and Angela from the Office...

The reason I start with an "Alabama" coop, is the humidity is off the charts here in the summer, and we just hit the beginning of it. All of the condensation threads and posts are geared towards colder months. We just built our chicken tractor and haven't moved the babies out yet. The last...

Hey I just got a account here. I've been looking into here for probably a year now. I have two Seramas. Rooster and a hen named Tywin and Uma. We are planning on getting laying hens soon. I have been wondering how to get your eggs to quit being soft and how to get your chickens to stop eating them.
