Hi, Thank you or your comments. You must be doing something very right for them to actually lay in a Nest Box, mine never do !!!

Lovin your site!!!!Very useful.I got three hybrid hens yesterday one Warren (Dolly) one Sussex (Penny) and last and not least Bella the Black Rock.I woke up at half-six to let them out (very exciting)I checked the nest box expecting nothing to be there,BUT I found two eggs one in each section of the nest box.Goin very well apart from the sussex and the black rock are constently peckin poor old Bella.Is this a size issue or are they just settling in?

Richard,
you farm and gardens look like a paradise. I live in high plains desert in Arizona.
THank you for your fourm and web page!
It was so grafifying to read the battery chicken farmer gave his chickens free range from when you first went to his chicken farm. You must have brought good karma to him and plenty for him to think about to have made such a change in his efforts to raise healthy and happy chickens!

very good indeed. i have had two chickens, 18 months old. They were hatched at my daughters school and she begged me to have them. We got the last two hen’s. I didn’t know anything about chick’s then. I can remember when we got our first little egg’s from them when they were 4/5 months old and we were so excited. we have been getting two egg’s a day ever since and double yolker’s in summer, except for the past 1/2 week’s we have just been getting one egg.

found your site today, very interesting.
have had 11 hens for about 6 mths. still love getting up early to let them out, but the wife says i spend too much time down with the chickens. get at least 8 or 9 eggs a day, but have just changed their coup and seem not to be laying as well yet.live in scotland and have had so much rain this summer, not as enjoyable in the wet, not looking forward to the winter,but the hens have a nice warm dry coup, so they should be happy .
