6 for 6 today, first time everyone laid on the same day. Must have been the 70+ degree heat in mid February.

I got my first blue Ameraucana egg today. A little on the small side, but, hopefully it will get bigger. Now that my Black Copper Maran started laying last Saturday, I got 3 out of 6 with 2 molting and 1 to lay her first any day now (another Ameraucana).

I've placed 3 orders from MM. The first order of 3 pullets came with no problems. The second order of 1 BO came but it was only 10-12 weeks old, not the pullet I had paid for. The third order was just canceled due to my pullet dying. This is the last time I will deal with MM. 2 out of 3 orders...

3 for 3 again today. chicky25ad, that is the smallest egg I've ever seen.

3 for 3 again today.....keep em coming!

Another perfect day, 3 for 3.

I've made 2 different orders from Murray McMurray...so far, with a 3rd pending. My first order, I ordered 3 pullets (Black Australorp, Barred Rock, Rhode Island Red) in early December and they arrived at the PO with no problems. Once I got them home, it said on the outside of the box they were...

3 for 3 out of my little ladies, again today. They're like little machines!

2 out of 3 yesterday, my Australorp took a day off (you read that right!) CALL A DOCTOR!!! (j/k) And back to normal, 3 for 3 today.....

3 out of 3 yesterday and 3 out of 3 today. I introduced my Buff Orpington pullet to the flock this morning (after 4 weeks in their cage, separated) and it went as well as could be expected. A little pecking and a lot of running, but no blood shed. Let's just say its a work in progress.

3 out of 3 again today. Little egg laying machines, they are.

3 more eggs, again today. I tossed a slug into the run on my way out and the "Chicken chase" began!

I'm averaging 3 eggs everyday...today included!

I've been raising 3 hens for about 4 months (and a 4th for a month)...good to know there are other like minded people around. I have a Black Australorp, a Rhode Island Red, a Barred Rock and a Buff Orpington. BYC's in Donelson....who would have guessed.

3 for 3 again today.....hoping in the next 3-4 weeks I'll be able to say 4-4.
