FAQ
Welcome
This blog contains first-hand opinions on laying hens from all walks of life, from backyard hens to professional egg farms. I spend many hours per day, five or more days per week working with all types of these magnificent egg producing individuals.
I've seen many things in many places....if you are interested in egg-laying hens, either in your barn or your backyard, or you wonder about the eggs in your grocery stores, let me know. If you have questions, ask. If you disagree with me, say so....but mostly, thanks for showing interest.Mike the Chicken Vet

I have a year old Penedesenca rooster that is limping. He puts weight on it but hops a bit. Just showed up, if I had to guess it would be one of his rooster pen mates. What to do?? Also, where and how do I get Marek’s vaccine. Just started my 2012 breeding late as I had surgery. Best John in Woodstock (not far from Guelph…..)
