Thanks! It is just a tiny little black thing. Almost looks like dirt somehow got inside the eggs. @Off-grid hen it doesn't look like the links. I would probably throw up if I saw the second thing in one of my eggs! @chloezoebob101 my husband made french toast with a couple of the eggs last...
I got a new hen a couple of months ago. She laid 1 egg the day after I got her then didn't lay again for a month. Since she laid the second time she has been laying consistently. However some of her eggs have this weird black stuff in them when we crack them. What is it? Is the egg still ok to...

This is the only egg I have received. I've had my chicken for almost a month, and she refuses to lay.
I got 3 new chicks a few days ago. One of them pecks everything. She will NOT stop pecking at the waterer. It is so weird. I've never seen a chick do it.

One is a black sex link, the other is a red sex link. I feed them the layer feed from atwoods. I'll have to get recent pics up. The ones I have are from a few months ago. I'm not sure how much they weigh. Holding them. I'd guess about 4lbs.
My ladies will be a yr old in March and they have still never laid any eggs. They are fed and watered regularly. I give them fresh bedding every other day. The coop is insulated so they aren't too cold. What could be wrong? I live in southwest Missouri, where normally it gets pretty cold. But...

Silkie doesn't have any before and after shots, bc I got her when she was already grown and she hasn't changed much.
Yes, I've had them on layer since the end of July. I have 3 sex links and a cochin. My silkies, Mille Fleur and the random girl are younger. They are only about 4.5 months. I live in Missouri. It's always sunny here. I do have their coop in the shade though bc it gets really hot here.
