Wow! That’s great!

Amazing! I was able to see the chick internally pipped into the air sack with both of Henny’s chicks last Nov. that was amazing to see. I careful put the eggs back in the position I found them under her. She is such a good mama This is Betty all grown up now

Sneaky! How far along are they?

That would be great! I am happy mine produce enough to pay for feed, but they can slow up now, I don’t want them to stress themselves laying so much.

Is it getting too warm now for them? Mine will start slowing up soon, the hot weather is hard on them.

20 eggs today. Had a run on egg sales this week sold 13 dozen eggs this week and have an order for 6 dozen on Tuesday which likely won’t happen. Though I do have two full dozen on hand so might happen…. My Hoover Hatchery chicks are over 3 weeks old now and think the barn is a terrific place...

Marvellous! I sell enough to pay for their feed and most of the horses grain also. I told the horses they needed to up their game and pay their way, I tried putting horse poopies in the egg crates but for some reason people wouldn’t buy them! :idunno

Almost stepped on one - lucky I didn’t!

20 eggs today. Waiting to hear from my niece on the silkie eggs I gave her to hatch, she should have candled them today….

I personally use wood shavings- never had any issues with them (other than my allergies - sneezing tends to scare baby chickies 🥰), once they move to the larger pen I use shavings and straw. Gosh they love digging and scratching through straw!

Wow what gorgeous beauties 😳💕♥️

Yes I do that also, or just raw when I accidentally drop one - wow can those chooks move when they see me drop an egg! Glad I am not an egg!

I heard this weird noise and went out to find my pullet Buttercup beating the stuffing out of some poor little mouse! But I didn’t let her eat it, she has never forgiven me for that! Have you Buttercup? 19 eggs today including 3 silkie eggs and one under Butterscotch (not to be confused with...

Oh I have zero (according to chicken math 😆🤭). Everyone has a name so the math states if it has a name it cannot be counted… I have 38 names to remember, and many days I am amazed I can remember their names! They range in age from 2 weeks to 8 yrs. I have 3 buff Orp babies who I am just now...

Yep that would work 😊 (Though I try to keep a low profile with the chooks just incase an AI outbreak happens in the area 😳 don’t want to advertise I have poultry!!!)

So far today 1 silkie egg - Marty you should have given me that egg yesterday! 💕

I have literally no room in my freezer and if I did we don’t use that many eggs to warrant that. I just give them away to friends and family when I can’t sell them. And if I can’t do that - we’ll just cringe at the thought of people who are hungry and me throwing eggs out.

Oh gosh! Glad I am not a toad!!! My 7 month old silkie pullet pummelled a poor small snake into oblivion and slurped it down like spaghetti! Good show Fluffy!

Silly people. So fickle! I have about 4 regular clients that but eggs and then I get others dropping by from time to time. Any extras I give to the family and friends. But I ended up throwing out a bunch of eggs - breaks my heart. Can’t even give them to the food bank as they are not...

Beautiful eggs 💕
