I have actually sat and watched my hens go in and out and removed egg after each hen. My non layer does go in and sits in nest but does not lay one. I do have 2 fake eggs so there is something in nest. I have done this more than once because like To. Jordan said not all will lay every...
5 from 6 hens. I do normally get 5 every day. Only 1 of my year old girls is not laying. I have not figured out why. I have checked her throughly and see no problems. She eats well a little bit of a loner but other than that she's my prettiest so I can deal with no eggs from her. Lol
I to just encountered the same thing. I boarded my 2 pugs. My 6 hens had to leave themy for 5 days.Water was my main concern. So I filled their 5 gallon water can. I also filled large plastic type trays they look like garden pot bottoms. Their feeders are both hanging and I filled them to the...
I did do that also ToniTalley but found myself making multiple trips with their food, fresh veggies etc. Lol, I guess their isnt a completely easy way of doing everything we need to do for our feathered friends. I do enjoy them as I am guessing we all do. This is my first lil flock and am having...
I week ago today I picked up 6 hens. I had also gave 3 of my 4 roosters back to the breeder who originally sold the eggs to my daughter who hatched 15 of 24 eggs for her class of students. I took 4 & yes they were all Roos. I of course wanted some hens. He told me they all had started laying...

Love that you put the boys fort atop your coop. Great family time building and having the kids be able to really be up close and personal while playing they are learning so much. Windergul, beautiful & fully functional.
Absouletly love it. No leaking works wonderfully. Great if your not going to be home all the time. The only problem I have is carrying it back to coop I do spill it on myself. My water source is in the front of my yard so spills are to be expected lol. Water stays cleaner than another waterer I...
Wound up with 4 Roosters from my daughters classroom chicken hatching project. Lol she did hatch 18 out of 24 which from everything I read was a good hatch rate. Her assistant took the other 14. Only 3 hens out of 18. Thankfully the breeder was local and did not mind taking the Roosters back. I...
