I just wish my home made chicken waterer had survived a freeze it was made from an old time gas station pump with the glass tube. I could always see when I needed to carry pails of water from the well.
LOL!! Awe poor Henrietta!! I've got two chickens who can relate. This past winter, they didn't lay one egg, I was thinking to myself "so I'm basically feeding two chickens going through menopause" but come spring time, they both started laying eggs again, so they are safe for now. =-)
Outstanding point. A White Ear Lobe should purchase White Eggs; and the Red or Brown Ear Lobe should purchase the Brown Eggs. "You have Poultry Smarts" . . . But sometimes that's difficult to say, because you might want to say "Smoltry Parts" . . . And I don't know what that is.
DAMN bessie and here I thought you came up with an answer to get rid of Obama before November...
I had 100 layers and they always have a period of molt.
