I'm never gonna get an egg!!!

Layer feed? And more protein

Was thinking of switching them over, and probably will (although they do have free choice oyster shell). Because my babies are still young though--and they are a mixed flock-- I can't do it till the middle of next month.

I had a dream last night that I went out to the coop, and hidden under a pile of shavings in my next box, there it was...a perfect egg. I was so excited!

When I went out to my coops this morning, all there was was a GIGANTIC turd in my one nest box. I'm talking a banty-egg-sized turd. But still, no egg <sigh>.

Blueberry is sooo gorgeous! I'm so attracted to that color in a chicken.

Thanks, I think so too! She turned into a really sweet chicken, she was a scaredy-cat when she was little. Now she flies right up into my lap when I have mealworms. She's the only one out of my 14 that does that.

I love that blue color, too! I think next spring I may order some more blue chickens. I already have a bunch of chickens in my shopping cart on MPC, lol...my husband has NO idea. I need me some more blue chooks!!!!

Lol thank you we were both squeeling with excitement! I hope yours don't take that long either!! It felt like a lifetime!!!

I think they just see me as a food provider and if I'm not providing food, I AM food.[/QUOTE]

Yes! If I don't bring food, I am food! I love all the what I wear to the coop. My hubby hinted the other day that I could go through the garage to the coop, rather than through the front yard. I didn't ask if it was because of my attire or if he was being solicitous to protect me from the rain. I choose the latter explanation . . . My attire usually involves very, very worn yoga pants . . .and often a twelve year old Tigger sweatshirt . . .

Ok yall hang on to your socks. My trail camera outside my coop at my farm took my picture today. I was hoping to go hunting this afternoon, therefore the camo, but it was too warm. But i think the camo with the pink rubber boots could be a new fad.

And we're getting 3 eggs some days! Enough that in the course of a week, we got enough to all eat eggs from our chickens!!
