    I have a chicken who keeps pacing in her run to her coop. when she is in her coop she is scratching all of the bedding out of her nesting box like she is mad that I put it there. But it’s to the point where she is scraping the bottom with her nails and just won’t stop. What in the heck is...

    Matching the chicken to the egg

    Hey guys!! My girls started laying and this is the first year for some!! I purchased a couple olive eggers last year. And I think one ended up laying blue eggs. I heard somewhere that the earlobes of your chicken can help dictate what color egg they lay (is this true?) Here is the color...

    Chicken laid weird egg

    Hi! My chickens have started laying eggs (from what I know they’re all white leghorns) and they should all be laying white eggs. This morning I went into the coop and found this brown yellow looking egg. Is there something wrong? Should I be concerned?

    Hello! I just noticed one of the eggs in my hatch is a chicken egg! Don't know how I missed that. Candled it, it's pretty much ready to pip internally. It's day 22, I was going to take the eggs off the turner on Friday, which would be day 25. But this chicken egg is already a day late, so I'm...

    I have shipped eggs that externally pipped this AM. I just checked again and noticed one of the chicks now appears to have its leg/foot over its beak. The hole is bigger, but it’s beak is now partially obscured when it wasn’t before. The egg is still rocking back and forth quite vigorously but...

    Chick pipping, wrong way ?

    My chicken egg started pipping at day 19, yesterday. This morning it has pipped more but it doesn’t look like it’s in the air cell. It’s like in the middle of the egg. Is it going to be able to come out okay ?

    Different Chicken Egg Colour: Is This Healthy and Normal?

    My RIRs usually produce a nice reddish brown colour. But today I collected the eggs and found a really dull coloured egg. It’s still the same size as normal. I’m hoping that my RIR is healthy. Does egg colour difference mean they may be unhealthy?

    Chicken egg with a spot in the air cell

    Hi there, on March first I was given a chicken egg. I didn’t have an incubator so after many YouTube videos I decided to try to hatch it with a lamp... After many days I’m worried it’s not going to hatch. I’ve been trying to figure out if it’s still alive so I did the float test. I did it a day...

    When You Don't Have an Incubator

    Not too sure where to place this, but I thought I'd share a funny story. My neighbor, who owns a bunch of chickens, started collecting eggs of her favorites in case something happens to them (and since her rooster's quite the horndog, who not?). One chicken in particular, who was raised on a...

    Just getting the farm up and going, and a customer of mine accused me of selling old chicken and duck eggs.

    One day I was going to check if anyone of my chickens laid eggs, and I found two eggs but my chicken was still right next to the eggs, but I grabbed both of the eggs and then my chicken started screaming! Why is this happening?

    Egg Laying

    Our seven hens decided to go on strike suddenly. They've been laying perfectly for months. Then suddenly stopped one day. What could cause this? They have constant clean water and nutrutious feeding. Nothing has changed but the weather. Though that hasn't prevented them before.
