Have I 5 chickens, sorry but not sure on the breed, 3 I class as normal battery hens and 1 is a speckled one and the other has no feathers on the back of his neck. Anyway
upto now the 3 battery hens lay a egg each day but the speckled who has only recently started laying only lays every now and then but my other one was laying quite well and now seems to have stopped and today she seems to have gone backwards and layed a tiny egg.
The other thing I have noticed is the battery hens back end is all nice and clean but the other 2 their back end is quite messy is this normal
Any ideas, please help or if you need more information please let me know.
