Wondering on my breeds if any of you have these kinds around what age they layed their first eggs? Mine should be any day and I’m so excited it’s like waiting for Christmas morning. I have almost 16 week olds!
Breeds: buff brahmas (I know they are later layers)
Easter eggers
Sapphire gem...
My sister and I have been raising chickens for years and have just recently become breeders of silkie chickens. I have dealt with egg binding before but this is a little different.
I have a young hen who is trying to lay her first egg, unfortunately the egg is larger than the average first egg...
I just happened to be in the coop one day while this girl was doin' her thang. (I'm from the south.) I'm use to seein' 'em in the nests so I thought nothin' of it. Then she stood up, went into a trance so I watched for a second then decided to video her as I knew what was comin'. And sho 'nuff.
