No eggs yet, but today she was singing the egg song loudly in the yard. I can't find an egg anywhere. Do they sometimes sing the egg song if they are close to laying?
Thank j
She is a Chicken and will lay that egg...Soon too!
Hens like home and if your nest boxes are soft with straw and shavings? she will use those.
If they Roost every night in the coop with the nest boxes you will be so happy to find the egg in the near future. I think in about a week...
Thanks for the advice! She will be my first of the ten in my flock to lay, so she has full access to the lay boxes. None of the others are showing signs of being close yet. I've gone on many egg hunts and haven't found one yet! I'm glad she is close!
I was told she was a golden sex link. I purchased her from a feed store when she was a day or so old. L The first photo was taken at 14 weeks and the second at 16 weeks. She has been free ranging all day long for the past few weeks. I can't find a stash but do you think I should confine her to...
Im a first time chicken owner and I'm wondering if this lady looks like she'll be laying soon. I'm not sure since she is only 16 weeks old? I read to look for redness and increases size in comb/wattle. The photos were taken two weeks apart.
