Hello everyone!!

:welcome :frow As I'm sure you found out that the tiny eggs are called fart eggs, wind eggs or rooster eggs. Most often they do not have a yolk. It appears your birds haven't been discovered by any predators yet. Most poultry owners will loose a bird/birds to predators at some time. You have a very nice looking flock. Good luck with your flock and have fun...

That’s super cool! No predators yet, we thought we spotted a coyote a few weeks ago but it was a stray dog. We need to further predator proof our coop because right now a digging predator could get in there in certain spots. We also have hawks around here so I put up one of those owls and I move it around every couple of days, but I’m not sure how well will that work if a hawk really wants to eat of my girls.
 
I wouldn't count on it. I built large pens that I covered with good heavy duty netting to keep the aerial predators out, electric wires around the coops and pens to keep other predators out as well as put concrete under all of the gates because of a fox that dug under a gate and killed several birds. Again, good luck...

Oh my goodness! Lots of work this weekend that’s for sure. Thank you for the advice!
