    At what age do Black Australorps begin to lay their first eggs???

    Hmm, sounds like you're getting close. I would just give it a bit more time... trust me, I know how difficult that can be. I can be extremely impatient You're almost there! If you act like you're going to pick up one of your nonlaying birds, does it squat for you?

    PLEASE HELP. Sick chicken?

    About 4 days ago, I noticed my EE seemed a little quieter than normal. She is the personality of the flock, and my favorite little fluff ball.
