When the roosters start breeding the pullets for the first time does that indicate laying will soon follow? My cockrels just started breeding my girls last week. I'm hoping for eggs soon, was wondering if breeding was anindication of them being close to laying. Thanks.
I am anxiously waiting for my first eggs also. My oldest birds are 5 almost 6 months. Orps are pretty but slow to lay. As anxious as I am for eggs for bsking I am hoping hubby buys me an incubator or I get a broody so I can start hatching babies!!!
