Our 19-20 week old Red Sex Link laid the first egg. She started squatting the same day I posted on BYC for the first time
and four maybe five days later we got our first egg.

So I saw one of my girls lay their first egg two days ago, it was a soft shell. But before I had time to evem run and tell my wife they had busted it open and started devouring it! I havent seen another egg since, do you think they have eaten the eggs before I even get to see them? How can i prevent this!? I have never fed them egg with a shell, only scrambled or boiled.
Are you giving them any oyster shell supplement or layer feed? They need the calcium in their diet to form a good shell.
Yea, both. Since they were 16 weeks. And they are all 20 weeks
My 2 that laid their first eggs on Saturday each laid again on Sunday. Then this morning I got a first egg from another one! It was a medium brown and covered in dark brown speckles. It was beautiful! Now just 9 more to start laying.![]()
