@tiffani day My silkies didn't start laying until about 7-8 months old. I have two, one of them lays almost every day. She takes maybe 1 day off a week. My other doesn't produce quite as often, she usually lays 3-4 per week. I can't tell any taste difference between their eggs and my other breeds, just smaller in size than most. I have to use more to make an omelette

Awesome thanks I have production hens I got them because I fell in love but I don't wanna wast an egg either. I was told they weren't edible but I didn't plan on it anyway I named them there for no pot for them

Sorry about your eggs.

I'm crossing my fingers for the one (or two) that are still kicking.

Thanks! Me too.I'm thinking if I only got one last hatch, then maybe two this hatch...maybe eventually I'll get a complete hatch eventually!

Well, let's hope there are two!

Wasn't planning on hatching anymore after Halloween, but my silkie has started laying and I'm curious to see what her & my sizzle rooster produce, so setting 4 more eggs today

.

@Scovy Momma feel you on the poor Serama hatch rate, I set 9, down to 2 now. Fingers crossed on the ones still cooking!

You too,sweets! Here's to us getting a couple each!

or just have tinier omelettes!
Maybe I should start eating tiny eggs, I'm sure that will help my diet.

So there's all the clears & the one blood ring.
Hope the last two make Halloween chicks!

Did you Crack them open?

Why crack open clears?

Why crack open clears?

So she isn't up all night wondering "what if my flashlight just wasn't bright enough?"

I didn't, I just looked at them with sad eyes.
