    Numbering/Dating Eggs, Bad Idea??

    I spoke to a friend of mine who does exactly this and what she uses is a vegetable dye based stamp.

    Guide to Chicken poo.

    Thank you so much for posting this. One of my chickens seems to be a little on the sick side. She has been a little lethargic and really hasn't been eating well.
