Thank you Daloorashens, I am pretty proud of my girls. I had thought Wilma (my Amber Star) was done laying eggs but I guess not, now she lays one large brown egg a day (they barely fit in the carton), the bluish ones are from my youngest hens Tilde and Bernice (Americaunas).

Very cool!! Thanks for the info!!

How do you know what size your egg is?

I have 3 chickens I need to rehome because the coop is too small for all 7 of them. The ones up for grabs are 2 Silver Laced Wyandottes hens and one Bantam sized mutt rooster, the SLW's are around 6 months old and should start laying anytime and the rooster is 6-7 months old. I need to charge $10 each for the SLW's (unless MeAndTheBoyz wants them) so I can pay my dad back for buying them, but the rooster is free. I am putting this on here because I don't trust Craigslist.

If I had room I would jump on those SLWs - very pretty! If I want to be in agreement with the law I am only allowed 10. perhaps that is a good thing...

I wonder how close people monitor that, guess only if/when neighbors complain. hmmm....

so I'm guessing you don't want any of our leftover supplies? thought we'd be done on Sunday but no such luck. keeping my fingers crossed for tues. nothing better to do on jan 1st, lol.

Happy New Year my fellow Idahoans! Been busy around here getting ready for early lambs and being on piddle alert with our new puppy. Chick hatching season is here and my husband re-wired the old milk barn so I can turn it into baby bird central! AWESOME!!! Yeah......he was getting tired of all the brooder boxes in the garage. He's allergic to feathers.

I still want the extra supplies, I want to try and make another coop for a breeding project I want to start in the spring/summer.
