@chickendreams248/15 this time of year sounds a lot like what I saw on the how many eggs did you get today thread where lots of people where lementing shorter days and molt. I am going to add a few easter eggers in the spring so hopefully I can get some blue and greens just for fun. Since the...

Congratulations

I feel your pain two of my nine RIR hatched April 15 started last week and only one of my three Barred rocks that are three weeks older than that have started. I think the shorter days are not helping the late bloomers. BTW if anyone figures out how to keep them from pooping in the boxes I want...

@chickendreams24one of the two buuf/EE has white spots on her pinkish egg too. She had rings on her second egg, but in her two weeks she has settled into spots.

I have two at 29-30 still freeloading too.

oh, good. My other pen started two weeks ago with the Barred rocks and buff/EE and three of those six are now laying. The one is a br and her eggs are dark whereas the others have pinkish eggs. The RIR are in a different pen or I would have thought they were eggs from the buffs. Have a...

I have eggs!!!!! My first eggs from my 26 week old RIR. So two of nine started today, though I am surprised that they are so light. Is that normal?

Yeah, congratulations! I know the feeling as I came home to my first three Tuesday night, but mine are 24&29 weeks

Aweaver- very pretty ladies;)

I don't know about letting them out because while I open the coop by five in the morning they only free range in the evenings when I am home.

I am a newbie, but I just got my first eggs last night from the tractor with 28/29 week old Barred rocks, and ee/buff crosses, my 24 week RIR are still eggless here in MO

It may not be true see my post my 28/29 weekers left me three eggs tonight what a way to start. Now I can hope for the nine 24 week old RIR will start. I heard if they start they are not as prone to be slow as older birds their first winter.

Those are from the three Barred rocks and three Easter eggger/buff crosses tractor. They still need to talk to the RIR , but I will take it I am soo excited

Wooooh hoooo!!! Look what I found when I got home! Oh I want a very excited emoji here!!!

well my RIR are twenty four weeks and my Barred rocks are 28 weeks with no layers so don't ask me. I can only wish you better luck

Congratulations! They are lucky they are young because there is no welfare or food stamp program on my farm;)

I think any of you with early layers are lucky I have nine RIR that will be 25 weeks Wednesday, 3 Barred rock that are 29 weeks, and three slightly older ee buff crosses I bought as pullets close to laying one of which has started with pullet eggs, they are all a bunch of freeloaders. Where are...

What is this singing everyone talks about?

Congratulations!! The most expensive and long awaited egg:).

Could you split that with me? I am unobservant in general and with the sixty five plus hour weeks I am working it is all I can do to just see if they go out OK the hour or so I get home to get them free ranging before roosting time. Not that they roost perse since they huddle on the roosting...
