I have eightyoung hens, five sexlink and three Buckeye. I recently put them under lights to get them started laying. One hen had been laying one egg every day but when I went out today I had nine eggs. Whoo hoo! My question is though, they are brown eggs but look like they have something...
I recently acquired five hens that are around a year old. They were not laying when I got them. Put a white light on a timer in their coop to come on about 3 hours prior to daylight. How long should it take them to acclimate and begin laying.
