    White Speckled Egg - can I intentionally breed for it?

    It doesn't rub off easily and every egg she lays has the white specks. I want to hatch a few of her eggs and maybe get some pullets to find out!

    Ended Cutest Couples Photo Contest—Poultry Edition

    Just wondering, this is my first time doing a photo contest, but I think the winners haven't been announced yet so maybe you're looking at entry number which I think is not the same as ranked.

    Favorite Hen That Lays Your Fav Color is?

    I tend to love the blue green eggs (my Easter Eggers) the best but right now there is a small and beautifully formed greenish egg with the prettiest white specks - I am just adoring how unique it looks. I think it's an Olive Egger but I'm not sure lol I love eggs and can't wait to start breeding...

    Dog attack!

    Right now, I was able to get saline spray in addition to the blukote I picked up yesterday - so I will be doing my best with those. I will give her another bath soak, saline rinse, blukote and blow-dry session then cross my fingers. On monday I'll try your idea of emailing pictures so I can get...

    Dog attack!

    Thank you, I think I am going to try harder to find a vet that will see her. Blukote was recommended a few times but I'm worried it's not enough. I will ask about Silvadene.

    Dog attack!

    It's very red and shiny but I don't see anything puncture like. It was a tiny dog and I saw him tearing feathers out so I am assuming her injuries are all tearing and pulling related rather than big punctures BUT it is hard to see. I did trim the feathers a little. Should I be worried about...

    Dog attack!

    Update: Sweetie survived the night. I sprayed blucoat on her this morning but I noticed a foul smell, kind of fishy. I gave her a warm water soak bath and made sure to rinse her wounds as best I could. It's so hard to see everything with all those feathers! Anyway, I blow dried her and did...

    Help me decide which chickens to keep and get next - breeding for rainbow eggs.

    As far as I understand, you can breed for almost anything! I get large colorful eggs with my easter eggers. Not for show though, just cause it makes me smile every day I collect eggs! I've got all kinds of ideas for breeding projects - it's overwhelming. 😅

    Dog attack!

    She's in a small, cozy coop set aside for grow-outs and things like this. I thought about bringing her in though. I'll hold off on the heat then. Thank you!
