Our second hen laid her first egg last night. Unfortunately it was our coldest night of the year and the egg was already frozen and split when I found it today. She is three years old this season and this is her first egg (ever). The hen in the pen next door is also three this season and she laid last year and her first egg this year came on December 2nd. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when the birds start laying?! Go figure...
