I just recently got 4 silkie chickens; one rooster and 3 hens. I got them this sunday. Well monday i got 3 eggs and now its been three days and they have not layed anymore. Why is it that they've not layed anymore?
I have got a disease going around in my coop and I dont know what it is. First sign of it was when my rooster would just stand still all day and would not move. The next day he was laying down outside the coop on his side. He could not get up. Now I have a hen that acts as if she is drunk that...
I only leave one egg on the nest for the chickens to sit on. But im starting to wonder if i need to leave more than one on the nest for the hen to start sitting on them. Some one please help!!!
This afternoon I went out to my coop to check my chickens and to gather my eggs. But when I got out there I only had one? they produce between 4 to 5 a day and I have 11 hens. Does anyone know why I only got one egg today?
