    Small eggs

    I have a couple of Black Rocks and one started laying about a week ago, six eggs so far. They are pretty small eggs and I know that with the first few their systems are still trying to get it right. But the eggs have remained small. Don't Black Rocks lay larger eggs?

    Thought she was sick

    We just got six baby chicks and after a couple of days I noticed one not doing so good so we kept an eye one her and then she went down hill and we had to cull her. Then another started looking really bad. We separated this one from the rest and kept an eye on her. We even kept her in the house...

    Two moltings?

    My girl just recently went through molting. After she started laying again, it only lasted for a few days then she stopped again. She then didn't eat much, in fact, hardly at all. I thought maybe it was the beginning of the end for her. But then she started eating again and with a good appetite...

    Different color egg

    My hen lays brown eggs but the other day the shell was white! The following day it was brown again. She's never laid a white egg before. Is there something going on with her diet or with her? I haven't changed her food or made any other changes. Any one know what that was about? She is 2 years old.

    Puppies and nutrition

    FYI for pet owners, especially if you have or will have a puppy in your life. We had our vet do a blood panel work up on our new 2month old puppy just to make sure all was ok with her. Her hemoglobin is a bit low so he gave us a vitamin suppliment to give her. He told us that even though puppy...

    Want to fresh eggs

    Ok, so I'm visiting family near Sacramento, Ca., Folsom area. Anyone selling eggs? I'd rather not eat store bought! Guess I've gotten myself 'spoiled'.

    Eggs different sizes

    One of my hens will lay a medium size egg one day and the next will produce a huge one. She does that on a semi-regular basis. Any idea of why the difference?

    Chicken lamaze

    I have two hens that were raised together and they are so close that at times they even share the same nesting box, at the same time. But usually when one is in the box, the other is close by hollering up a storm. Sometimes right in the laying chickens face! For a long time I thought one was...

    Chris Brown

    There's been a lot of 'backlash' about Chris Brown performing on the Grammy's. What are your thoughts on this?

    Whitney Houston record sales

    This is in no way to take away from the talent that she had. I just have to wonder, after reading about how record sales have soared for ones by Whitney Houston, why would so many people wait until after her death to go out and buy her records? It just seems to me that if you like someones...

    Not a good way to end the year...

    On New Year's eve my mom fell and broke a hip. No, she wasn't even partying! She fell in her living room after closing the drapes. She is now doing really good, and will be home next week, thanks to the insurance company that won't cover anymore hospital stay! Grrrrr, I hate insurance companies...

    Not a good way to start the year

    On New Year's eve my mom, who is a spry 92, tripped and fell in her living room and broke her right hip. She had surgery (a partial hip replacement) and is doing really good. I live in Panama and she lives near Sacramento (where I was born-not hatched, and raised) I booked a flight right away...

    Dropped an egg!

    I was getting the eggs from the nesting box and there were ants in there. One of the eggs had some ants on it and here, where I live, ants will bite, even the small ones pack a good one. So I was trying to get them off the egg while holding both eggs, well...I dropped one on the ground and my...

    Wing versus fence

    I had a real scare this afternoon. I looked out my window to check on my two hens, seems to be a habit of mine, and I noticed one of them laying right up against the fence with her head sticking out. She was just sitting there real still which is very unusual. They do like to poke their head out...

    Grrrrrrrrrrr stupid cookies!

    So I'm visiting my mom for three weeks and my jeans have shrunk. There really isn't much work to do around here to keep me busy and I am stuffing my face way too much with junk type food, ok...too much of any food really. She likes to go out to eat a lot and keeps stocked up on cookies. I have...

    Blood spots on egg shell

    One of my hens laid an egg today that had spots of blood on the outside of the egg shell. She acts alright otherwise, eats, runs around and seems upbeat. Is this something that I should worry about?
