I have three chickens, 2 almost 7 months old ( a barred rock and an olive egger) and one I bet is at least a year. The older one is a re-homned hen that I was told "just started to lay" but I got one small egg almost 2 weeks ago and nothing since. They have free run of a large penned in area and are only locked up at night. The have plenty of greens, vegetables and fruit (especially cool watermelon because of the hot days), plenty of fresh clean water and clean bedding, hgh quality layer mash and oats, even meal worm snacks. In other words they are pretty spoiled chickens. And the younger two almost 2 months and the older one about 2 weeks ago. Even though the older one was rehomed due to a traumatic event ( all her coop mates being picked off by predators) shouldn't they feel t home by now??? I got that one egg and I'm pretty sure it was a first egg by my barred rock. hat's going one?? Shouldn't I be getting eggs from them all by now??
