    First Egg Countdown

    Congrats on all the eggs! For those not receiving their rent payments yet, your day will come! Finally the youngest girl laid an egg today! Yeah! The husband will be sad because it wasn't blue. It looks like a pale tan color. I'm wondering if she is a d'Anver instead of a EE. She is a sweet hen...

    Today I got 3 eggs! Yay! 3 out of 4 are paying rent. If the youngest pullet waits as long as the others did to lay I won't get 4 eggs until Feb. Can't wait to see what color egg Henrietta the EE will lay.

    First Egg Countdown

    I think my EE must be younger than they said she was. She doesn't have much of a comb yet. The Cuckoo Marans is 27 weeks and no eggs yet. The RIR is 29 weeks and hasn't laid yet. The BO is laying a egg every other day. I thought the Cuckoo Marans was going to gift me yesterday but I guess she...

    First Egg Countdown

    I guess it's this crazy weather we are having in SC. One day it's warm and the next it's freezing. I had expected eggs before this from the RIR Mary Nell. She was supposed to be 4 weeks old when I got them. She mothered the others who were each a week behind each other. Jenny the BO is the next...

    First Egg Countdown

    Yay! Got our first egg! I just checked the coop again and there it was! Not sure if it was Jenny or Mary Nell, they are both squatting now. Yesterday Mary Nell was in the coop just talking away. Today when I checked Jenny was under the coop and the rest of them were in the run so maybe it was...

    First Egg Countdown

    My BO Jenny squatted today! Her comb looked even redder than yesterday. I think they are all in cahoots and decided they will all lay eggs together. They do everything else together why not lay their eggs at the same time. I just hope they don't wait until Henrietta is ready. She is the youngest...

    Thanks The weather is so weird lately I think it changes their minds about laying. This morning it is 22 degrees! This is SC, it's supposed to be warm. LOL One week it's in the 70's the next week the high is 40. No wonder they aren't laying.

    First Egg Countdown

    I'm still waiting for eggs. The RIR is now 26 weeks, the BO is 25 wks, the Cuckoo Marans is 24 wks and my EE is 18 weeks. They bury the golf balls in shavings all the time but they don't lay anything in the nests. Nobody squats but their combs are red. I haven't heard any egg songs yet either...

    I look every day too, a couple of times a day. I put some oyster shell in there and they went to town on it.

    First Egg Countdown

    Pretty eggs! I'm still waiting on a RIR who is 24 wks, a BO that is 23 wks, and a Cuckoo Maran that is 22 wks. The EE is only 16 wks so not looking for hers yet. Somebody has been playing around with the nests but not leaving anything in them.

    Cockrell or pullet

    Thank you! I was worried about the coloring. I tried to pick out the one with the smallest feet and no comb. They got them from a hatchery and they were all supposed to be pullets but one had a red comb and some big feet.

    Cockrell or pullet

    They said 8 wks old and supposed to be a Easter Egger. I wonder if she is a bantam, seems like the others were bigger at that age.
