I have 2 RIR's, one is much larger than the other. The smaller one lays at least 1 egg a day. I am not sure that the larger one is laying eggs at all. I have 4 Eastereggers and 5 Buff Orpingtons. the larger RIR is always riding one of my Eastereggers and pecking on the back of her head and neck...
A little bit more about myself. This is my first time raising and being around chickens. I had 4 more chickens, however 2 died and 2 were killed by raccoons.
