:lau claiming more birds? I thought with all those rotten eggs you’d call it quits.


I just want to know how they fit so many eggs under them! Bitty can only cover 3 silkie eggs.

:oops: I cant help it.
I think its so hot they dont need to set them or rotation or double stacked. :confused: The eggs are half the size of silkies. One hen has 3, one has 7 .one has 8. two has 2. and one has too many to count. Out of all of these I can reach 2 nests

I am finding a good quality feed is important. Lots of hay, timothy if you can find it, alfalfa cubes and plenty of fresh grass. I have a hard time finding grass here, so i cut honeysuckle or other nontoxic weeds. Every time i weed the garden the bunnies and chickens get their goodies.

Im lazy Cap, When I mow I get about 4 mower lengths away from the run and keep cutting the grass so it throws it towards the run then last go around they get a bunch of already chopped up greens.

Yeah, but we have no grass to speak of, just weeds and they are not near the chicken yard.
