    Stopped laying

    Hello, I’d appreciate some input. My Chickens have been laying about 3-4 weeks. They are new layers and we were getting an egg every 3 days or so. This had increased to every 1-2 days. We haven’t had any eggs for 4 days and aren’t sure if this is normal or what we should be looking for...

    Perplexed about Wendigo

    Wendigo has still not laid, in over a week. She is not egg bound; she is not molting; she is eating; but, barely leaves the egg laying area. She has been sitting on the other eggs. Her pooh is normal. She has had extra calcium, vitamins, and electrolytes. She has had worm medicine. The coop is...

    To lay or just to poop?

    So my chickens aren't laying yet. I'm theorizing that, the house part of the coop is now too small, the two nesting boxes (part of the tiny house) are being slept in (we have 4 chickens) and pooped in! Have had fake eggs in there for the longest time and now THEY are just getting pooped on...

    Molt or something else?

My polish hens have quit laying and I know when they go through molt this happens, so i suspect that...however I can't remember when they usually do this. They seem fine physically, no signs of stress...but can heat cause them to stop? I live...

    Broodiness broken, eggs????

    Hi! I have an almost year old Partridge Olive Egger who went broody, and I broke her of it in 3 days. This was well over a week ago, going on two weeks, and I have yet to get an egg from her. How long does it take for her to get laying again, or do I need to be concerned something is wrong...

    1 year old RIR hen having difficulty laying egg

    I am quite concerned. I have noticed my year old hen sounding like a goose (for a couple of weeks now) and it has been taking her a long time to lay an egg, going in and out of the nesting box. Somedays she just doesn't get it done but usually lays one by the 2nd day. I have plenty of food...

    My hens have stopped laying

    My hens layed normally last fall. They didn't produce as many eggs during winter, but now that it is late Spring, they still haven't layed more eggs. One of my chickens is broody, but the others mostly ignore her. How do I get my chickens to get off their 'winter laying' schedule? They are only...

Half of the kennel is in a pond and the other half is on land. We just got them about a week ago. Right away, each female laid an egg a day starting the...

    Silkie not laying and acting broody

    my 1 year old silkie started laying in December and was laying consistently. She was still on the freedom chick starter crumble food. When that ran out we switched her to a layer pellet food. This was 2 weeks ago. About a week later she wasn’t laying and just sat in her nesting box consistently...

    My Plymouth Barred Rock is 3 years and two months old. About 4 weeks ago, we went out of town for 10 days. While away, we think she was molting and did not lay a single egg. She is mostly a free range backyard chicken and eats Purina Layena feed everyday. When we got back, She had many new...

    Hello! So I would love some advice please. A couple of days ago i noticed a worm in some chicken poop. From what I can tell it was a roundworm. I bought some kilverm and my husband wormed each of them (3 chooks) individually (they don't drink the water). I don't know who had the worms however...
