You don't understand, I know how to put up a fence! 2 years ago we cut a path and put up a 38 acre fence in 3 months, I KNOW HOW TO BUILD A FENCE!!!

Ah... so you just think your sister needs more exercise...

When did I say that? I spent an hour and a half chasing a rabbit.

Then it's not a fence, it's a suggestion

Lol it sounds like all of his "fences" ate just suggestions

You just said she was chasing it... guess you both need the exercise then...

Well whether or not he believes he needs the excersise, clearly his animals do.

We both had to chase her.

No, I'm skinny enough as it is!

That is what free range means isn't it?

So one of the girls who lays blue eggs (I think it was Sandy) Laid an egg that weighed 80 grams this morning.

Are the eggs more glossy than matte?

Glad they've gotten bigger... air cells in pullet eggs usually don't get as big as the norm as they are juggling moisture loss with enough space for the growing chick...

I would say about 50/50. Not really glossy, but not matte either. Least porous eggs I've ever seen. The eggs from earlier in the week are still a little small, but I'm only dropping 5%. If I don't start doing better than 75%, I will start weighing.
The eggs for the set next weekend are much more normal sized. It's weird, it's like all eggs stepped up a size from the 22nd to the 23rd.
Being my first batch, I'm still not exactly sure what I'm looking at, but most blues are very, very dark. Almost black, and some have phenomenal muffs. I'm really happy about my pairings

Let me rephrase. You need to learn how to build a TALL fence
And a roof...

True....It sounds like your family really needs to embrace the free range. This whole everyone has their own pen is not really working for you. My chickens fly over a 5 ft fence, 3 ft isn't going work.
