Got my first egg ever on July 4! Got another on the 5th, but haven't seen one since. What can I expect moving forward? At what point will it be more consistent?
My feeder is working out pretty good, though if I did it again I would make the side walls in the tray taller so it's harder for them to scatter the food out.
Wow, thanks all. I wasn't expecting that but I'm glad to have the extra variety. The wife, on the other hand, isn't going to be so happy. I guess as long as the easter eggers lay some blue eggs she won't make me sell all of them ;) Goes to show you can't always trust people on craigslist...
I apologize in advance for asking. I know there's all kinds of threads like this and resources for telling them apart, but I just can't figure out what's what.
Pictured below is 3 Ameraucanas and 3 Easter Eggers. However, I'm not sure which 3 are which. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Zach
