What is the best method to collect eggs from select hens?
I have a variety of hens but only want to collect eggs from my Turkens, 3 out of 4 EEs, and slw.
Nearly all my breeds are brown layers so I can’t tell the eggs apart. And one EE has a deformed scull so I don’t want to hatch her eggs.
Ive heard of using food coloring and lipstick. Are these reliable? When do you put it on to make sure it marks the egg?
