Hi - Not been on here for ages - so hello again everyone.
we have been keeping chickens and ducks for about 12 months - we have 5 hens that we've had for a year & 3 younger ones that we've had for 6 months. The youngsters have just started to lay (one of them is laying blue eggs - which is a bit weird as she's supposed to be a wellsummer - but obviously isn't)
Anyway - what I need to ask is - for about the last 2 or 3 weeks some of the eggs are being smashed - it is getting more frequent. Anyone know why? or any ideas what we can do about it?
Thanks.
