I don't think it's the kind as much as the amount. Let's see...... 2nd pot (12 cups per pot) 3rd cup...I'm on 15 cups so far this morning....

Everything should be done to excess! Moderation is for Monks! To get the real taste of life, you must take big bites!

So if you ain't living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.

One of my Marans started laying again last week. Freeloaders!
All of my bantams haven't even slowed down production, it's hard to sell those little eggs, though.
But I don't have to buy any!

Happy (early) Birthday Mel !!

The Golden comets lay really well as do the white leghorns. I have one of each and they have all been laying EVERY DAY for the last year and a half! The silver laced wyandottes are excellent layers as well. They beat out my RIR and barred rocks when it comes to laying.

Jeepers! Second Cuckoo has emerged with a HUGE comb. Actually had the little tips all folded over!!!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that one's a boy.

Which ones have the bigger yellow head spot? The girls or the boys?
