I have a couple of Leghorns and two of which just started laying. The first bird laid the first egg last Friday and has been laying every day since. The second bird first laid an egg Monday afternoon. I expected to find two eggs yesterday (Tuesday) but only found one egg from the first laying bird - I know this because they use two different nest boxes and I read they'll always use their favorite. Anyway my question: once they start laying do you get an egg pretty much everyday or is it normal for a pullet to lay and egg on day one and nothing on day two. I don't know if it makes a difference or not but #2 laid her first egg Monday between about 3:00 pm and 5:00 pm. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. I'd hate to have a pullet lay one egg and then decide layin' ain't her cup-o-tea.
