Neither of my "white girls" have missed a day laying yet! They are egg laying machines and I love it!

"Then poof, automatic hysterics" made me laugh!!

I currently have at minimum 18 hens. Two are 8 years old - a white Silkie and a Buff Orpington. I have two young chicks that I recently hatched from the Buff Orpington's eggs - as old as she is. I think one will be a hen, but the jury is still out on the other one. The one original laying hen that I call "the old white hen" turned a year old in October and lays the medium brown egg and she's also one of the crossbred chicks hatched here.

The rest are just now reaching point of lay - and I am not real sure what I am going to do with an estimated 100 plus eggs per week once they are in full swing.


lol on making you laugh - truth is often funnier than fiction.

The flowers are about the size of a fifty cent piece. That's 1.25 inches for those to young to know what that is.

Trim, your plant appears to be a member of the Cassia family. Rapeseed is a little different. It is related to cabbages, and has flowers with four teardrop-shaped petals: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapeseed#/media/File:Brassica_napus_2.jpg

I have not been getting alerts for this thread. How's everyone doing? I suspect my new ducks have bumble foot as they have a much harder time walking.. 1 blackish dot in the middle of their foot on each pekin.. or they got some kind of leave or something on their feet and can't walk as good because they're overworking themselves? Dang right when I thought they were getting better.

Pick them both up and examine real close if bumble you'll need to treat. Get some pics too.

I can soon, my dad lets them out in the morning while I'm gone, I get back at 2 and I left my phone at my house so I could get clear pics around 3.
