So who here sells eggs? How do I get a Nebraska egg code number? How do you label your eggs? Do you candle every single egg,no eggs, or just one here and there and assume the rest are the same?

Took ours outside for the first time too! They weren't really sure about the whole thing yet

What feed mill is the farthest west that anyone knows about and if you've bought from them, how much is feed?

It really is, especially the northern part, but yeah chimney rock and some of those "famous" Nebraska landmarks are all out here :)

Hello, finally someone else from Western Nebraska, let alone the Panhandle! OrganicFarmWife, the biggest Town near Minatare is Scottsbluff which is way out west. Closer to Utah than we are to Omaha.

Just how Americans and Poultry farmers like them: fat, dumb, lazy, and cheap with lots of meat and fat so it tastes good. Nutrition doesn't matter, quality of life doesn't matter, just price and flavor! That's where the Cornish X came into light. Nothing really compares to it. If you want a...

Congrats, I don't know why buy those eggs are always more satisfying, haha

I got a huge egg today! They've been getting larger over the past month, but this one is way bigger than any other!

I know that relaxed feeling well! Nothing quite like it, especially this time of year! As far as the no egg conundrum, I have no idea. From the little I know though, no eggs for 5 days seems wrong. I know eggs can get caught in their vent at times, but I'd search for that on here because I...

Do your hens free range? I found my white rock had a little nest going in some tall grass about 15 feet from our coop with 4 or 5 eggs in it. Locked them in the coop for a day and forced them to lay in there and they've seemed to get the hint that eggs go in the nesting boxes.

Congrats! That's exciting, we've only been getting them for a couple weeks and it's still exciting, but that's the most exciting one!

Mine roosted on their own just fine (I'm pretty sure... I rarely check on them after sundown), but my first two eggs (plus the yolk I got first) were on the floor of the coop. I put the golf balls in a few of the nesting boxes and egg #3 and 4 were both in nesting boxes, but not the ones with...

Now, I just need to teach them to USE the nesting boxes! My plan...

The Speckled Sussex is about 23 weeks, the barred rock is about 21, and the other 3 are about 22. Not sure who laud it but I'd guess the oldest?

I got my first egg yesterday!

I bought all mine at Murdoch's. I had a Columbian wyndotte too who was starting to get really pretty. Similar black and white pattern to yours, but much more white with black/grey streaks. She was taken from us by a raccoon though :(

I love her pattern!

She's a Speckled Sussex. What's the black and white one that you can see the tail on in your second picture?

Welcome from the panhandle! I have 5 right now that should be laying in the next couple weeks!

We got a couple inches of spring snow out west!
