You can add your (general) location to your profile. It really helps to know where people are from, if they ask questions about, well, anything! Climate matters a lot when it comes to taking care of chickens.

Hey, @aart, can you post your famous instruction picture, please?

Now that almost everyone is molting, I have at least one egg eater. I caught one of my yearlings coming out of the nest box on a scouting trip (I had just emptied one egg and two shells from in there). I grabbed her and stuck her in with the teenagers. Not sure what to do with her now, but she's not staying that's for sure.

The problem is, was she the egg breaker or just taking advantage? I may just have to keep pulling birds until I'm able to ID the guilty party. I did put a couple ceramic eggs in there.
