My flock won't touch white bread, but grahm crackers crumbled up are one of my ladies favorite treats.

They lose their little minds over sprouted boss and dried mealworms and dandelion leaves.

My friends are all lined up for my chicken eggs lol, $5 a dozen. Yesterday was their first day after deworming that I can keep their eggs. I cracked open one huge egg from Josephine and it was a double yolker and one of them looked like it was turning into an embryo.

I have a rooster over my laying flock, doing a great job. Then I got 26 itty bitty peep peeps that are 5 weeks old, but idk how to sex them.

I was told br pullets have a dot on their heads as chicks? And slw have more white in their wings as chicks if they are cockrels? Is any of that true?

Today is moving coop #2 & enclosing it today for the 26 x 5 week old itty bitties. And I need more pine bedding, feeders, waterers, feed. They eat way more than I had thought they would.

Getting 3 eggs a day atm from my ee's. My ameracuna is off her lay still after a month. What the cluck?! More of my pullets are getting to their pol faster, Nell my rose comb leghorn is now actively clamoring for treats where she used to be not so interested.

Someone told me (who has chickens) that I have to throw my eggs out now I have a rooster and fertile eggs. Whhatt?!

I think that that is a load of malarkey! The whole time I have had chickens, I have had at least one rooster who definitely fertilizes our eggs! Our eggs are fertile and taste fine and, from my understanding, are perfectly healthy. All in all, I think it would be foolish to throw away perfectly good eggs just because they are fertile.

Also, there is an Asian dish, I don't know how it's spelled, but it sounds like balute and it is a baby chick about halfway ready to hatch, I think they are at day 15 and then boiled... if you can eat that then you can eat one that hasn't been incubated

Balut: The Filipino delicacy that makes the world squirm.
