Talking about the picnic.... I have offered to host it at my place this year. If anyone else really wants to host speak up now, if not.....
Time to start thinking about it!!.... I was thinking about either the 4th or the 18th. (The 11th is Mother's day weekend and the 25th is Memorial day weekend) Let me know what weekend works best and we can pick the one that most are available for.

Any date is good for me

Define 'late at night' ?? I can certainly have him ready to go by then...

Well late at night could be in a time frame of anytime during dark hours but hopefully before midnight, lol. Depends on traffic and weather as I will be driving back from Illinois.

Well, I don't have a problem with getting up to meet you, but if you are too tired maybe we can meet half way at another time? Your choice.

I call that a Egg Malfunction ! New layers sometimes lay weird eggs ..You got a rare one ..A whole egg inside of a egg ..More common is is 2 eggs inside 1 shell

That's all the updates from me, thought you'd all get a kick out of the supersize egg, poor girl, what an introduction to laying, every egg since then has been normal size.

It only comes in a liquid, you have to give it to them orally via a syringe. The dose is .23 ml per pound, and then a repeat dose ten days later as well. You can weigh the chickens for best accuracy but if you can't do that, you can just go using the average weight for the breed and it'll be fine.

Aria - Not laying - are you sure they are young hens ?
do you have any windows in your coop ? as no light = no eggs ..And you dont let them out ..right ? to get natural light ?
Other thinks like Pyxis mentioned 1) Worms - Natural things -you can add Crushed Pepper Flakes to their treats 2 ) too many treats 3 ) Not enough calcium ..Are you feeding them Layer ?

To be clear, I have not been near any other flocks for some time and should not be a risque of contamination for you.

come to our chicken stock Party in May ...
