    How long to lay

    After 5 weeks she finally started laying, as mentioned I did start feeding her laying mash, not sure if that helped, but the eggs are great.

    Rooster with no head... Name that predator

    I think I found one of the culprits, I caught a possum in a save-a-heart trap, hopefully this will help in eliminating the egg eater

    Rooster with no head... Name that predator

    The thing that killed my birds just tore the heads off, never even attempted to eat it, just left it laying.

    The Hunt for Mystery Predator

    I lost a few chickens with all that's missing is its head, I've never gotten a proven real answer to what it might be, I have everything mentioned above, that's owls, raccoons, opossums, snakes hawks, and eagles. My next move will be to put up an electric fence and a camera to see what it might be.

    Lost my flock to a raccoon :(

    Sorry for your loss, I've also lost my birds to something, not sure what it was, my question is do you know for sure it was a raccoon? Did it just eat the head off or eat other parts of the bird? I had a camera in the coop one time and a possum was eating the eggs but never bothered the chickens.

    How long to lay

    It's not her picture, I will change it when I get one, I'm assuming she is close to two, being as big as she is. If not two she is younger than that, I just know she is old enough to be laying, as for your recommendation about changing feed, that's my next move. Didn't realize that scratch is a...

    Can’t break broody hen

    Why do you care if she is broody? put eggs under her to see if she would hatch them, I wish I had one that would go broody saves time and money.

    How long to lay

    Just purchased a 2 year old Bluff Orpington hen, I've had her for 3 weeks, I also purchased a 2 year old rooster, same breed. Back to the hen, she seems content and is eating very well but no eggs yet. What can I expect in another few weeks or so? We are in GA. and the weather has been colder...
