Apparently it then allows the birds to come into breeding condition naturally and seems to work better than our way of trying to "manage" the breeding seasons. Have you ever tried this? It makes sense to me that the male and female will progress naturally as the male testosterone levels increase which will result in him systematically starting to court the hen (bringing her into breeding condition) and then ultimately starting their breeding as a synchronised pair..<br /><br />I would love to hear your thoughts on this as I would like to try it out.<br /><br />ShawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206760154173299151.post-86440885630737612722014-05-17T19:30:45.259-07:002014-05-17T19:30:45.259-07:00The redness indicates need to drop down on the egg...The redness indicates need to drop down on the egg protein and increase the carbs with plain eggfood, and I would add peas. They look a little dehydrated. <br />Odd this year, I have seen this several times with my chicks and they seem to need more hydration .<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
