November Update

Does anyone  Have any special chicken apps that they use to keep track of their hens and the eggs that are laid. I recently stumbled upon a free app called flock star and able to enter bulk egg entries per day. Here is a photo of my entry of November for about 2 weeks
💗
The chickens are doing really well since I added a light into their co-op. They went through malts about the month of October. Then they just completely stop laying eggs at that point. This summer has been absolute the wettest that I can remember. And so I think with all the cloudy dreary days the hens just kind of gave up wanting to lay. My hands stop playing in September their molts finished in October and I finally started getting eggs in November. Bixby has filled out in her color with the motul gene it covers her entire body. Gravy is weighing in just over 6 pounds. Fortnight is weighing in just about 4 and a 1/2 almost 5. David's doing well for 4 years old. He survived last Winter and his sickness. And he still is blind in his right eye but that does not stop him from being the leader of the flock. Even with 3 other males in the co-op right now. None of the chickens. sick it all this past year no illnesses no injuries. Grieve I did have a cuts on his spur phone. But it's growing out anyways as he matures so you don't really see any scoring. Little one which is David's daughter is very flighty. Sandy Bixby fortnight gravy Daphne are all doing very well.
