    The Mysterious Case of the Egg Yolk Stains

    Hi folks, HISTORY: I'm hoping someone can help me deduce what's going on over here. Two of my 19 month old hens--a GLW and BO--had been going through a pretty hardcore molt since a couple weeks ago. They'd been separated into their own pen, to help keep them from the drama of the rest of the...

    Two Eggs In One Day?

    I've got a leghorn and three road island reds. Very young, not quite six months old. I get four eggs a day. Four chickens, four eggs. Everything seemed normal.

    Chronic shell-less egg layer

    I have been playing detective for a few days looking for what I thought was a egg eater, but it turns out my favorite hen has been laying shell-less eggs.
