Chicks, man

[WRM]

Gotta turn the pressure down, shoots right thru 2x4s...

As Danny Vermin would say: It's an .88 magnum--shoots thru schools.

Doubt you could make a movie with that line anymore tho.

The chances of these cackling coyotes attacking me and the chickens outside today are slim...but never zero

Won't twice !

 

[JWlineman]

Still waiting on eggs, a couple more weeks I think. Lol

 

[McMillan]

Getting about 2 a day right now out of 3 hens, the younger 10 need another month or so before they start

The golf balls help stimulate them starting.. ceramic eggs or other similar shaped items work too

Nice! I have a few ceramic eggs in the nest boxes right now, late October they'll be 6 months old

you should try ducks, bigger richer eggs and less yard destruction

Trying to pace myself but I need to read up on it! Lol

Ostrich eggs work well, but the pen needs to be a bit larger. LOL.

Those look rinsed? If they are they need refrigerated.. instead..if you just towel wipe them until ready to cook they can sit on the counter for many many weeks without refrigeration…

 

[JWlineman]

Yeah, we don't clean these unless they're going in the fridge. Straight from the nest to the pan! Haha

 

[Longtooth]

Finally moved them out of the garage.... Just in time for the cold weather. lol

I've always thought about that, a snake swallowing one of the fake eggs. Time will tell I guess.

I’ve had a couple of snakes that couldn’t get out of the pen because they had swallowed a biddy or two. Getting caught in the chicken pen is usually fatal.

Fantastic activity for the family but my experience was that chickens are not eggonomically feasible.

eggzacly why so many quit before becoming eggzperts

Plan to build a coop on the new place, bride is all excited. Want to pen at night and let them roam around during the day.
