I have a sex link who is 1 1/2 yrs. old. She has quit laying or is eating her own eggs. I do on occasion find yoke remains but no shell. I am stumped as to what is happening?
Darn. I already mixed the remaining starter I had with the new layer. Because of the mixed options and opinions I'm hoping to be ok with that. I have my small feeder I used when they were in the brooder, that will work for the oyster shells, but how does just the one or two who are laying get...

Oh yeah still good, just mixed. One girl is in the box now having s heck of a time , guess it will take some time getting use to the noises these girls make as they are maturing. Lol
Hi my pullets are 16 wks old and just starting to get active in wanting to start laying . I want to change there feed from starter to layer but I still have about 10 lbs. if starter feed. Is it ok to mix the remaining with the layer feed or best to just get rid of it?
Hey there , I just found our very first egg. Golf ball in size , God Bless her. I found it out side in the run mostly buried under straw . I have 7 pullets using 4 nesting boxes. What can I do to encourage them to lay in the boxes ? Very excited their maturing !
I have heard just that that there is really no difference from starter to grower . I like your info and think I'll follow your advise. Thank you very much.
