The post below prompted me to ask this "chicken" question. My new pullets (raised from baby chicks) are starting to lay. I"m having a problem with eggs being broken in the nest boxes. It appears the chickens are pecking them and breaking them. I am feeding a mixed ration prepared by the local feed mill that contains (according to them) all the necessary ingredients. I do know it contains poulry supplement along with corn and oyster shell. The hens have access to an outside run during the day, along with free-choice feed and water 24 hours a day. They are penned up at night. I fed them some hamburger meat thinking perhaps it could be a problem similar to cannibalism in hogs. I also gave them a tub of limestone gravel to peck and scratch in. What is my problem with these pullets?
