Anyone have luck catching a feral chicken?? UPDATE: Rooster caught, no hen

Have you ever had one lay a double yolk? Mine did once wish I could figure out how to make it happen again

New layers do it more often.

I've had several double yolkers.... But it comes with a cost. Less eggs.

That would be fine I get more eggs than a family of 6 can eat

I have one hen that lays double yolkers 3-4 times a week. She's a blue egg laying Easter egger. Poor girl gets extra treats....

Ya'll do know a broody hen with or without chick don't count and them chicks don't count neither.
Iffin them chicks was made by a rooster at your place then he cannot count since they never lay eggs.

Now if any are bantams they don't count either since they tend to be broody AND only lay pigeon sized eggs anyway. One female bantam actually equals a negative 2.

Oh trust me I can make pretty much any flock equal 0 chickens!

Yup need more chickens!!
