    Yolks not strong

    They have gravity feeder of oyster shell. I hand toss scratch for a treat and they are free range from sunup to sundown. I know I have a couple of egg eaters in the bunch, but I cannot catch them. I know they don't eat THAT many eggs!!

    what time of day do your chickens lay eggs

    Well. I have 2 that lay by 8 am and the majority lay 3-4 pm. Have 2 other that lay right at dusk. Wish they'd have a hen party to discuss and get sync'd.

    No, I don't know what laid any of those eggs. I just found the picture on the internet. I don't have the room to try and make my own crosses. Genetics are tricky!

    Olive Oil The color is similar, although mine might be a tad paler. I am vastly disappointed. May as well have just bought more EEs. This is NOT olive. It is pale green. They should be called what they are.
