    Lash egg?

    Ok. I've gone out and checked on her multiple times since she laid that egg and she is eating and drinking normally. And no droopy tail feathers. But im planning on watching her for a few weeks just to be sure. I have amoxicillin on its way now. I may have jumped at the bit a little early. But...

    Well I do know it was runny when I cut it open and it was very yellow like yolk. Even saw some egg white. She is only 5 months old.

    Lash egg?

    Not sure if this is a lash egg. It's one of my ameraucana pullets, she has only laid 2 or 3 other eggs so far. And then she laid this today. It's not hard, its very squishy. Just look weird and I've never dealt with lash eggs before

    Brown leghorns

    I live in northern central MN so we don't get very many hot days that exceed lower 90s. There is a chance she laid in the grass one evening cause I heard her singing her egg song. Never did find where she laid and my oldest dog can sniff them out from a mile away. So it probably got ate up...

    Brown leghorns

    Well at least their not mean 🤣 but I just went out to their run and took pictures of the 2 that will for sure be laying eggs soon. And ya, waiting for eggs is so hard. I got 2 eggs from one of my barred rocks. But that was last week and we had a few days of in the 90s and she hasn't laid since 🙄...

    Brown leghorns

    Well to simply put it, I had a barred rock starts laying right before 16 weeks old. So im guessing the one brown leghorn will start laying around that time as well. And ya, they are very flighty. Some will let me give them little pets on their chests but don't care much for it. They mainly avoid...

    Brown leghorns

    I ended up with 7 pullets out of the 15 I got. They are now 14 or 15 weeks old and appears couple appear to be close to laying their first eggs. I rehomed the 8 cockerals as soon as their chest feathers came in and I knew they for sure where boys. The females will keep smaller combs for a while...

    Barred rock or cross breed?

    I was sold 6 chicks from fleet farm as barred rocks. They are 16 weeks old now and only one actually looks like a tree Plymouth barred rock. The other 4, as one died right after we got home with them, have very little barring on their bodies and their heads have a weird pattern to them. The only...

    Easter eggers cockeral or pullet

    Well once they hit about 9 weeks old I was able to tell which ones where which. I rehomed 6 cockerals to our amish neighbors. Only had 3 pullets and had to cull one last week cause she had pendulous crop and was constantly on meds and the vet said it wasn't good to keep her on the meds like that...

    Marans Rooster - Blue Copper Splash?

    Looks alot like one of my boys, Chase. He is a splash copper maran. Sold to me as an odd ball blue copper maran. I ended up doing my research cause I thought maybe I got a cross. But the guy I bought him from doesn't cross breed his blue copper maran hens. Although he does use his maran roosters...

    Exactly! No one wants an aggressive rooster especially if you want to hatch the eggs.

    Rustoc rock possibly roo?

    Well, it is what it is. As long as he is friendly he will get to stay. I just won't keep roosters that will go after my or my son.

    Rustoc rock possibly roo?

    Right? I'm trying not to be upset cause I already have 3 cockerals out in the coop and run and I didn't want a 4th one. But to be honest if this ends up being a rooster and is friendly enough I'll probably sell my splash marran cause he is a little too feisty for my liking. My other 2 are easter...

    Rustoc rock possibly roo?

    I bought 3 rustic rocks from tractor supply around 4 weeks ago. They were all supposed to be pullets although I know there is still a chance for a roo. I noticed some differences of one versus the other 2 last night when we went to clean their brooder. I have one who's comb and wattles are...

    How can i intoruduce pullets

    Ok. Then Ok. Then I'll put another crate in there with extra shavings and let them sleep out in the coop. It'll be easier to move them that way then ha ing to bring them back into the house every night like I have been.
