Most likely the Naked Neck! Mine laid early and they are always good sized or oblong sized eggs. She is one of our favorites.

I have a well insulated coop and I can rarely hear them until I go to let them out in the morning then I hear the loud thumps of them jumping off their roost. Is it possible to better insulate or put some kind of sound proofing on the ceiling to prevent the echoing? I'm sure you could quiet it...

I have eight 8 month olds and have 27 new chicks coming this week. There will be three roosters in this batch of 27, but how to introduce them to their seniors and when??? I will be whatching this thread, great question!!

I had one die out of eight with the exact circustances. No trace of mites, but they had bare butts from being pecked at. I'm going to keep an eye on this thread and see what the BYC family has to say.

LOL, Yes... It's an addiction! We started with 12 lost a few early on and now we're down to 8. They just started laying around Christmas and now we get about 4-6 eggs a day. Problem is, we eat them as fast as they lay them. So, I was just browsing online yesterday and decided to order 37...

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't replied to your replies. Been busy with the kids and chciken drama! ANyway, the flock is doing better all are back in the coop except my silver laced that got a hole pecked in her face. I have to apply blue kote to the rear end of two of the girls still but they...

Where are you in Indiana? Looking for a good looking roo, live in Terre Haute.

I have a buff, silver and gold laced, a production red, rhode island red, a naked neck (my favorite and the worst injured)and an americana.

OK, so I rigged the run, put out some scratch, a popcorn ball and some pineapple upside down cake. They stayed out for about 30 minutes and went back in?? Should I close the door and make them stay out for a while? It's pretty cold here and I don't know if I should do that?? I also put some...

I live by Indianapolis, IN. I thought the Flock block would help with the pecking. I"ll let them out today and hope they don't fly out of the unfinished run. Any other suggestions??? Thank You so much!! Keep the suggestions coming....

I have a total of eight chickens, all different breeds. I also have a nice large insulated coop with windows. The girls haven't been outside in a few weeks due to the weather and the run being under construction. The problem is that the girls are pecking the heck out of one another! I have...
