I like that, see no one can complain when they are the kids birds... Nobody wants to see them cry.. I bet when you break out Chicken math your's is easy. And the kid's chcikens don't count as your chickens because they are the kid's chcikens.
Do the kids need a few more? I have 3 real large Fluffy birds that they would love to cuddle up with,
Hey P&B I still have 2 big Blue birds that lay eggs if jackson is interested, They are Blue..

Yep, 2 Blues and Black you want one, some or all 3? I thought Beth was coming for them but then I never heard back so if you want them they're available.

The chicks will fill the egg and be sized accordingly. But egg size wont effect the size of the chick as much as the genetics of the chicks parants. The chick will be the size according to what it is out of when grown.

i am on board with Guy on this one, however if you only set and hatch the larger eggs over a period of a few generations you can get birds that will lay larger eggs. You see there is a plus side to everything.

Is there a possibility there are two yolks in the eggs? Sometimes when hens begin a laying cycle as a young hen, there are double yolks. I like Carls's suggestion on selectively hatching only the larger eggs and getting larger chicks after a period of time.

It was 106 around 10 o'clock today. I don't know what our high was. It's still too hot to work outside.

Our painters gave up around 1:00. They scraped and calked, all on tall ladders, since 7:00 this morning. Some were joking about sharing a pool with the ducks.

That only works if you're the first one in. Number two has dirty water, guaranteed.

Another question, this one is about genetics. If I have a Plymoth Rock rooster and a light green/blue egg laying EE will that pair give me OE's?
