We freerange our breeding group of Orpingtons in our orchard. We go out of our way to provide things to keep the chickens interested. These ladders leaning against one of the cherry trees provides the perfect "Jungle Gym" for the chicks. It's also fun to watch them.

Alien egg alert! One of our girls laid this bumpy egg today, the tiny dots are calcium deposits which can happen as they start laying for the season Have you had any alien eggs recently?

We lost Audrey our 12 year old Cream Legbar a couple of years ago and I miss blue eggs. Think we need a blue egg layer and a really dark brown from a Marans It’s been so long that I’ve bought pullets - where have you bought birds from recently?

@DrChicken I very much believe in learning so you can do it alone so I'm thankful for the help or advice of others. Guess I need a poultry vet guide 😁 will post any issues but for now he's deflated and quiet. Hope he can go to momma tomorrow.

@oldmommatajuri If you touch it does it feel like fluid or air inside a balloon? Could be a ruptured air sac if it feels like air

I’ve not worked in a poultry shop for a few years so not sure what’s around now Looking for a new drinker, large volume that you fill with a watering can from the top - not a twist off and flip upside down job - any recommendations please?
