Nevermind . I think i just found out about it on another post. I am going to pin it on their first molt. So my next question is ho long before I see more eggs. The Neighbors are getting antsy

I have 4 chickens (See Sig) and they have laid for me all summer long. as of late, they have not laid in the past 6 days. No changes to the coop or anything, i was thinking the weather change, we are here in California. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks, KNC

I am 100% sure they are not roosters, they are confined to a chicken run, and they are not molting as far as i know. I have been mixing some scratch with their food as well as oyster shell. so i wil cut the scratch out immediately. thanks PS what is BOSS?

I have an EE and a black australorp both of these birds are not laying they are about 30 weeks old, i have 2 leghorns that have been laying for about a month now, they are all around the same age. can chickens be sterile? Can anyone help with some knowledge. thanks

Thanks for the reply! I was hoping that was the issue. i always thought that the layer formula was enough for calcium.

Has anyone ever seen and eggshell that was almost a rubbery, latex texture I am going to head out today for some oyster shell

WOOO HOOOO!!!!! my wife just stepped up in the ranks for raising chickens. She was able to corral her back to her run!!!

Can chicken bite through the plastic poultry netting?

well i'm at work right now my wife called and told me! she is getting ready to take our son to the doctor.

one of my leghorns just flew out of the coop and over the fence do you think she will come back?

My two leghorns started at about 21 weeks, they are 24 weeks now. i am getting an egg a day from my two leghorns. What do you feed them?

Hello all!! I have a black australorp that is about 24 weeks, her comb and wattle are already red, just as red as my leghorns who are already laying. I was curious as to when she may lay. There are not any signs of wanting to lay (squatting, in and out of the nesting box...etc). i just read the...

Hello all! my Leghorn just began to lay eggs i have gotten 3 since this past Saturday. however, the first one was small but the other two were even smaller. how long until i start to see an average sized egg? Thanks

From my knowledge, researching these boards you may only get egg production out of a chicken for 2 years or so. I am by no means an expert this is just what i have read. hope this helps.

Quote: I was told they were about 2 weeks when we bought them, it has been very hot on certain days couple of weeks ago was about 102 but has cooled as of late, mid to low 90"s. the leghorns look like girls I am not sure how to tell if my australorp or my americauna are roos.

Hello all! I have 4 chickens 2 leghorns, 1 australorp and an americauna, on this past Saturday I got my first egg from one of the Leghorns and got my second egg from the same leghorn only small this time. why is it that none of the other 3 chickens are wanting to lay any eggs? is it possible...

I think i agree with gryeyes and midget!! we just got our second egg this afternoon, i have a tendency to over think things too much. probably shouldn't change to much and add stress to my four chickens i have had since they were little chicks. They are just now starting to lay and after viewing...
