I'm new to this but also have Rhode Island Reds.They started laying around 5 to 5.5 months regularly in August and totally stopped in mid-Oct.Don't know why.I have 3 and at the time I was getting 2 and sometimes 3 eggs a day.Hope this helps.

Thanks.He was evil at first waiting behind a tree or my truck to unleash his attack after my arrival home. After hand feeding him he eventually chilled a bit....The hawk was more interested in escape after the kill.I came home to find the hawk still trapped in the cage.There were many feathers...

I have 5 hens and only one roaster thank god.This guy is a real basturd.Cute when he was a chick,but when he grew older,I had to decide his fate fast.He would for no apparent reason attack me while running loose in the yard.I never treated him harsh.He all of a sudden started coming after...

I too live in central NC the Uwharrie NF and because of the new threat of bear and other teethy critters I rarely let my chickens roam far.Still have all 5 and let them cut up in the woods but lock them up tight just after 8pm.Hate to hear about that.Thats my worst fear living in these dense...
