Someone asked about the old car in one of my pics of natural eggs in photo contest . Besides the story in the thread ........ the engine was built out of old tin cans , wheels & seat from an old tractor ......hubby welded all the parts we found in the property 17 years ago into yard art...
The girls just started laying in the last month or so , all hatched about mid August 2020 ......have one gal who seems to think she’s a duck ! The eggs are huge & mostly double yolks !!
lays about every other day 🤷♀️
I’m such A proud mama lol
I also have a couple RIR who lay quail sized eggs lol
Just out of curiosity I had her squat & saw a little blood on vent area (nobody seems to have noticed or pecked at her ) I was going to clean it up with a warm rag & put some vetricyn (sp?) on it .
Any other suggestions ?
Looks like from earlier today .....not a feather anywhere in the vicinity .....
Not one of my flock , but we live in the country and everyone has chickens ....but it’s BODY is pretty close to where my coop is ....
