    If a chicken layed an egg earlier today can she be eggbound???

    It was odd. All 4 were walking around and acting like chickens should, all 4 layed an egg today, all before noon. Tonight around 7 I went out to change water and all were fine then all of a sudden one just kind of stopped moving around and her tail is up and her butt is pulsing. How...

    I have read some do and don't refrigerate

    I understand if you don't wash the egg you can keep it out but if you wash it put it in the fridge, right? Why would you keep them out?? Out of curiosity I never heard of eggs being kept out before. Can you tell I am a 1st timer??

    I know there is no such thing as " normal" but how does this sound??

    How do chickens lay eggs at the beginning of their egg laying lives?

    We have 4 RSL's who are between 19-20 weeks. We are getting 1 egg a day and it's been 5 days in a row. Is this one egg a day from the same chicken? Or are there more than 1 chickens laying and they are all adjusting to the whole egg procedure??

    Our chickens are 19 weeks old give or take. We have 4. We went away for a few days and came home and looked and there was an egg in the nesting box. Our local farmer neighbor was taking care of them while we were gone so we thought he put an egg in there to play a trick on us. We went...

    My Heat Management Trials

    Thanks for this thread. My poor chickens are sweltering. It's 96 here and they were all in their coop where it has to be over 100. I have a mister going out in the run, frozen water bottles and watermelon they are not fond of and there they are in the coop?? I tossed their fuzzy butts...
