Egg production slowed down, but not terribly.<br /><br />I like the presenter's quote. We could use some atmosphere!Shaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02075389514646502762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2630293045560418896.post-74028928922732515512010-01-21T11:52:05.651-08:002010-01-21T11:52:05.651-08:00The presenter at the chicken class said,

Have they molted yet?M.

One of the roosters pecked him on the belly, and it made me realize that it could have easily been his eye, with as short as he was.<br /><br />I'm toying with the idea of a rooster this summer. <br /><br />Where did you go for "Chicken University"? That sounds like a lot of fun, and a great way to learn from others.<br /><br />4 hens and a rooster sounds very manageable. How fun!Shaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02075389514646502762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2630293045560418896.post-66908426154798838152010-01-21T09:20:29.277-08:002010-01-21T09:20:29.277-08:00I love it!

Fun! <br />I plan on having 4 hens and a rooster. Do you think having a rooster would help out your poor little picked-on one?M.
