    Please lay, please lay!

    Patience is sooooo hard with a backyard flock. We had to wait for 8 months before our BCM's started to lay. Some girls are just so slow to get things moving. You'll be doing the egg dance soon!

    Missing feathers - but why? No rooster!

    We purchased 2 layers from a very clean farm a couple weeks ago that were housed with a couple of roos. They were missing feathers above their tails, like you would see from birds who've been with a roo. We quarantined them, they seemed fine. A week after they were introduced to our 3 hens...

    Signs of laying

    This is going to sound super gross I know. But when one of my new hens is about to lay, she has a golf ball sized poop. Sure enough, within a day or two, we get an egg.
