Oh my gaaawwwd! Finally. We have equipment and pipes that operate again! Now my chore list instantly got longer but I'm ok with that. Now, I can clear the green, and hopefully clear the weeds and restore it to a decent state. LOL right now, it's looking a bit too "Grey Gardens" for my taste.

I saw GAchickennewbie pop up a couple of times recently. Can't remember last time I saw a post from Rockyrhodes. I have a habit of leaving myslef signed in and walking away from the computer for hours or a whole day so I can't be sure.
 
Hi friends,
I have a 1 year old hen that has been laying consistently, 4-5 eggs a week for the past 5 mos. Her eggs are medium in size and light beige to pinkish in color. Today I collected a distinctly different colored egg. She has been confined to a separate run and house since she killed one of my 5 week old chicks, a month ago.



She free ranges most of the day and can visit the newbies through the fence, but until the newbies are her size and can defend themselves, she is not allowed with them. I don't know whether this is stress related or not.

I am attaching pictures of the egg she laid today, and if any of you can identify the abnormal shell color, I would love to hear from you.

IMO, this just happens from time to time. Could be stress, could just be the hen just slowed down the egg at the end and the color coating was distributed funny. Here was one of mine. Some days, her egg is solid olive green, some days it is speckled to where it looks like pepper was sprinkled over the olive coloring.

 
My Doberlady is SUCH a good girl. She stays on the screened porch during the day while we work. Hubby says when he got home today one of the Brahma kids had jumped ship and was hanging out on the porch with her.. Not a feather out of place. :) She's such a pain sometimes but then she shows how good she really is.. :love
