I am totally disgusted with the American people who ! voted off James!!!! The final should have consisted of James and Scotty! The girls have commonplace, if beautiful, voices but Scotty and James are unique and ultra talented.
My EE 'Cooper' laid her first egg....LIGHT TAN!!! I am so disappointed. She has all the Americana characteristics: big muffs, beard and slate legs. I so wanted a green egg. Oh well, they will taste great.
I'm a first timer, too. I have one buff orpington, one barred rock and one EE. Love those three girls. My barred rock just laid her first egg four days ago. Still waiting for the others. Welcome to us chicken fiends...

My three free range in the backyard all day and then, just before dusk, they go back in the coop/perch and wait for me to 'tuck them in'. Lately they have been coming up to the back door and clucking/demanding to be let in to the bathroom (right off the back door) where they 'grew up' in the...

I went to close up the coop for the night and found a smaller pinkish brown egg. Very excited but not sure which one laid it. I have a Barred Rock, Buff Orpington and an EE. Any guesses???
I don't know where you live but have you been to some of those 'shelters'? IF you can get in, they aren't safe. Why not leave a note for them, explaining your rules and that you'd like them to come talk to you so you could work out the ground rules, and perhaps have them help you raking out...
For all of you who have cats... how do they treat the chickens? Are they allowed outside with them? How and at what age did you introduce them? My grandson wants a cat, his dad's allergic so they can't have one at their house and he wants me to get one - ut I already have 'his' three...
My dog's AKC registered name is Summerwinds Anutara Gossip Column and her call name is Scandals. Her dam's name is Secret and her sire's name is Gossip - so when you tell a secret to a gossip you get: A SCANDAL!
