    rescue hen - not laying eggs

    We adopted two bantams mid-September, one whom was supposedly laying before we took her, the other who stopped laying when previous owner got rid of the rest of his full-sized layers. We waited, and waited, for these two to adjust to being with us, and then to being with our 8 full-sized girls...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    We got 13 eggs today from 8 hens/2 bantams... lol!!! Hubby moved the roost to clean and found a clutch of 7 eggs the bantams have been laying while on the roost. We've had them since September when we adopted them from a friend... nothing from them at all until our 8 chicks got to laying age and...

    Gotta keep the golf balls warm!

    We've had below 0 temps overnight here lately, and one of our EE's has just started giving us a beautiful green egg for the last 3 days. We have been finding them outside of the nest box. Because of the cold temps DH put a very small heat lamp in the coop just to give them some extra heat, and...

    Who else is waiting the impossible wait?

    We are waiting no longer! Found our first egg today, it was green (from one of the EE's) frozen solid so probably from a day or so ago? Hopefully more to come!

    Who else is waiting the impossible wait?

    2 bantams adopted mid-september.....NOTHING. 8 pullets we got mid-July, just turning 22 weeks....NOTHING. I am cursing living in Michigan because we may not see anything until spring. That's what I'm counting on, hopefully they surprise me.

    Who else is waiting the impossible wait?

    We adopted two bantam hens a few weeks ago from a friend who was getting out of chickens... the cochin was laying before we brought them home but NOTHING since she's been here! We also have 8 'big girls' (2 each EE, Light Brahma, BR and BO) who are about 11 weeks old, so don't expect anything...

    Just walked out back and 3 coons were trying to get in the coop.

    Great shooting, as to using a .22 in an urban setting I would highly recommend against it. It's not so much the noise, you can shoot from inside the house out an open window and it is unlikely that anyone will know where it came from even if they do hear it. That little projectile is very light...

    Pecking order or something else

    Ok, should I put the other Brahma in with it? It doesn't appear to be pecking at its sister and I would hate to have the one chick by itself

    Pecking order or something else

    I just started my laying flock, all pullets- 2 Ameraucana, 2 Light Brahma, 2 Barred Rock, and 2 Buff's. My wife wanted some variety. Anyway, the chicks are only a few days old, they were purchased at a local hatchery, and we noticed that one of the Brahma has a spot of blood on its leg. Upon...
