I have 7 laying hens that give me beautiful large eggs. 3 months ago, one of my girls hatched out 4 chicks. The original chickens started laying at the normal age but all of a sudden I find 2 unusually small eggs. The smallest being found at the end of a poop deposit, so I am sure they are...

I have a 1 year old girl that has been limping bad enough that she just stops and lays most of the time. I have examined her more than once and cannot find anything that looks wrong. The pads on both of her feet look fine, her leg looks fine and no mites that I know of. I did notice her poop and...

My sweet Australorp, Molly, has been setting on eggs, BUT, I will see her in one nest box for a few days and then change to another box. Do I need to do something to keep her with the same eggs? I would appreciate some feedback! Thanks!

Good morning all. I am a first time chicken mom and really ignorant about a lot of stuff. I have a question about one of my girls. She looks like she has a little dandruff on her head and the feathers on her head look like they are thinning. I can't catch her & I don't see good up close and...
