I have four amercauna..two red sex link..one black sex link...one barred rock..they all lay around three or four eggs a week. After raising them from chicks..the first egg and everyone after that is exciting..you will enjoy your hens once they start laying.

We just started getting eggs from our girls. We have 11 hens and I'm getting about 5-6 eggs a day already. The first egg I saw was a week ago. We have Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks, one Silver Laced Wyandotte and 3 Easter Eggers. I'm getting like 2 blue eggs a day since they started laying. RIR are supposed to be daily layers. Not sure about the BR or SLW.
