EGG EATING and beak trimming
I checked the archives and did not find the answer I wanted.
I have 2 spring '08 bantams eating eggs. Ive put them in a cage. I am
fairly confident they are the only 2. I think they made the discovery
when I had some eggs freeze and crack this winter.
A friend mentioned that trimming their beaks could stop this. This
assumes trimmed beaks cant break eggs. Any advice. and how do I trim
beaks.
Oh, the things we do for chickens.
