Chicken Raising
From Atlantic Roleplay Wiki
CHICKEN RAISING by Daheness Gon
While handling chickens is
a relatively easy task, as
is collecting eggs, there
are several pieces of
information that will be
of much use to the
novice owner. For example,
quite a number of hens
have soft, delect fluff on
their underside which they
developed as chicks, but
never outgrew. As a
result, the coarse straw
of the nest tends to
irritate their hide. As a
result, many hens will
bury their eggs beneath a
thin layer of straw. This
provides warmth that the
egg is missing because
the mother will not fully
set herself down upon
the egg.
In addition, most hens do
not lay their eggs at the
same time as their sister
hens. A hen must rest at
the minimum three full
hours before she will
capable of producing
another. And do not be
concerned if more time is
necessary for thy hens
to create more of their
offspring.
