Thanks for the advice! I'll give them some more time.

I have a couple of welsummers and barred rock that are 9 months old,and have never ever, laid one single egg! I have them on a good proteindiet, I feed them Cock Mix-19% protein and Layena. Perhaps they are sterile...when should I give...

I sell them for $2 dozen in Las Vegas.I did see one craigslist ad for $5 a dozen

You can watch, my RiR stomps her feet, and shoots out an egg.

Well hanging it off the ground didn't work,they emptied 16lbs of pellets from the feeder, then they poop & peeall over the pellets on the ground...And they won't eat it!

If her local feed stores can't special order it,have look at pet stores, parrots and other pet birds get oyster shells.Also you can mail it to her in a flat rate envelope, since its very heavy.

I buy cock mix, it contains raw lentils,chickens love it! My chickens also love them sprouted, I soakthem over night too...
