    Why is my brown leghorn not laying?

    I have six mixed breed chickens and my two year old brown leghorn hasn't laid in almost two weeks (she is my only white egg layer so it's easy to know which eggs are hers). Prior to that she was laying every 2-3 days since the days have been getting longer. She had a slight limp for a couple...

    Overeager Egger.

    I got all my FRESH eggs in a basket. And now one is about to hatch. Holy hen. Was not prepared for this. I bought a whole set of 14 fresh & fertile eggs off of a “neighbor” and never thought to candle them. I just stuck them all pretty-like in my Brinsea maxi ii advance and all of a sudden I...
