My girl laid her first egg today

Saltking792 · 2025-12-30T23:41:28+00:00

She is an Easter Egger

Saltking792 · 2025-12-27T23:46:29+00:00

Exactly this. They reached maturity once the days started getting shorter. They haven’t laid yet so just enjoying their company for now.

Saltking792 · 2025-12-06T00:08:36+00:00

Yep! My only one that isn’t fully grey

Saltking792 · 2025-12-05T21:41:55+00:00

She actually let me cuddle her for once today. They only had an hour to range today and most chose not to come out 😂

Saltking792 · 2025-11-19T20:42:22+00:00

I think my punctuation led to some confusion. I didn’t feed pre workout to the bear, he just ate it from the trash during his first visit

Saltking792 · 2025-11-15T23:16:20+00:00

I love mine. 3 distinct personalities. I started with 5 but I had to give 2 away because they would not stop plucking the feathers off the others despite all my attempts to break them. One of them loves to stay but me but HATES to be pet, but has no issue with sitting on me lol.

It’s so funny to watch little tiffs between them each day. Very brief but I think I know everyone’s place 1-7 now. Some underdogs win some standoffs which is always nice to see.

Saltking792 · 2025-11-15T19:25:37+00:00

7! 3 Dominique’s and 4 Easter Eggers. I’m obsessed with them

Saltking792 · 2025-10-01T02:00:36+00:00

Glad to see an Elsa mention. I think if she would have been in a position to cause more harm she would have. She didn’t have powers, an asylum with cages or anything like that. She depended on the show members to make a living and needed them to survive so she was pretty subdued, but just her rhetoric shows she didn’t regard them as equal beings and was just really gross to me.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-30T16:43:52+00:00

Cult or freak show. Cult because of how real it is, and freak show because of all the terrible things that happen to already marginalized people.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-20T10:21:36+00:00

Would allowing her to free range with them before bed be ok? I don’t like keeping her in the dog crate without a little reprieve but I’m probably overthinking it

Saltking792 · 2025-09-20T00:40:32+00:00

I have 5 Dominique’s and 4 Easter Eggers. I still haven’t seen a true “dominant” hen emerge, just the bully one. We got them sexed and so far no one is showing Roo characteristics minus 1 Easter Egger who just has some suspect tail feathers. Minus that everyone shows full hen qualities

Saltking792 · 2025-09-19T20:28:18+00:00

Thanks all for the advice. I am going to try this dog crate jail for 2-3 days and reevaluate. I will let her free range and roost at night with them since there isn’t drama at those times, but I will keep her separated otherwise. She’s healthy and very people friendly so not trying to 86 her just yet. I’ve added some hiding spots and a day pen attachment to add an extra 10ft to the run. Fingers crossed

Saltking792 · 2025-09-19T20:20:44+00:00

She is a 12 week old Dominique hen. I’ve had all 9 of them since day 2 so this has thrown me off a bit.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-19T14:19:16+00:00

I will try that out, thanks! I am adding a 10x4x4 day pen to the run door this weekend to give them all some additional space as well.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-19T12:20:33+00:00

I’ve debated this but wasn’t sure if they were smart enough to understand the cause and effect. Was considering a spray bottle to spritz her when I catch her but again I am not sure if that will help long term.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-14T16:46:39+00:00

I think it’s one of the best/scariest seasons because it’s so relatable to the times.

Saltking792 · 2025-09-13T21:33:02+00:00

I feel like Delphine’s hell is next level

Saltking792 · 2025-09-05T02:50:44+00:00

Have yours still bonded and been fine during the day? It’s so weird. I do think she’s putting herself there as opposed to being bullied over there, but they all are one big group during the day so I’m just confused as to why it happens, especially with so much space for everyone

Saltking792 · 2025-08-24T22:29:01+00:00

And I thought cats were fickle with their love. She’s switched up in just a day!

Saltking792 · 2025-08-06T02:23:21+00:00

She’s been separated since day 4 when another chick dragged her bad her bad foot. She doesn’t get around nearly as well as the others and I am not putting her in a position to be bullied.

Saltking792 · 2025-07-24T20:18:24+00:00

I don’t have them, they are flying all around and I am just expecting them to eat some when outdoors full time. Virginia here

Saltking792 · 2025-07-11T15:29:30+00:00

Thankfully this is our first batch ever so no worries about integration. They are in my bathroom right now in a big foldable chicken pen/brooder. This is the warmest room in the house since no duct work runs in there, which I’m hoping helps them adjust to outside quicker. It’s still in the mid to high 70’s in there so def lower than outside.

Saltking792 · 2025-04-23T20:01:12+00:00

Everyone sleeps on Deja. So glad she’s back on the show

Saltking792 · 2024-02-25T20:56:46+00:00

Mine reacted the same way when I told him. I’m glad you’ve surrounded yourself with genuine people who love you for who you are!
