    Cayuga hen's feathers turning white

    Thanks. Wow, that would be a big change seeing her all white. I just found this too, "The plumage of the Cayuga is uniformly greenish black and may become mottled with white as they mature." on the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy website.

    Cayuga hen's feathers turning white

    Our cayuga hen's feathers are turning white in patches. She always had one small spot of white but this has changed dramatically in the last month or so. She is about a year and a half old. She has also stopped laying eggs. Is the feather color change normal?

    Laying is slowed down!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ours are all less than a year old and we do not light the coop. They all rarely missed a day all winter long. They are free range during the afternoon and the days are getting longer. Same food, same everything.

    Who all here gives away their eggs?

    We give away assorted dozens of chicken and duck eggs to our neighbors. We figure it's the neighborly thing to do and we get assorted gifts of fresh fish, etc. in return. To others we sell them for $3/dozen.

    Laying is slowed down!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Rene, I hope someone offers us some ideas. I've been watching your post as I think it may be related to my small egg post that no one has responded to yet either. Did your girls lay small eggs before the slowdown?

    Suddenly Laying Small Eggs

    One of our ducks and one of our chickens (both about a year old and daily egg layers) have suddenly started laying small eggs. What's going on?

    Rough eggs

    Quote: No rough spots today, they seem to be intermittent.

    Rough eggs

    Thanks! We've not noticed the rough spots on the factory eggs from the supermarket. The analogy of the paint overspray is right on. The roughness can't make for a very comfortable exit...

    Rough eggs

    One of our girls (we think its our Plymouth Rock) has been laying rough eggs. They are their normal brown with white sandpaper like specks on them. Is this an indication of a problem? They are definitely not smooth eggs.
