27 EGGS FROM 24 HENS

[kwynn's birds Alaska]

i've gotten 7 eggs from 6 hens one day. I had 3 green eggs, and i only have 2 green layers. i guessed that someone was extra happy that day.

hope you get more days like that.

Okay... now y'all are just being hateful. My little brats won't lay anything. I clearly have the world's only non-egglaying chickens.

I'm going to go pout now...

I have yet to have a chicken start laying before 5 1/2 months, even my leghorns. How old are they?

They're only 20 weeks. I'm just really impatient.

They've been taunting me for weeks though. First the boys figured out what to do with girl chickens, then the girls got all red in the face. Then I thought one was squatting. Turns out she was just sitting down different. Sigh.

I was some ^&%$$%^&*%!! eggs!!! Little snots...

Pffffft, that's nothing. I have 10 hens that are 24-26 weeks and only have 2 laying, and one of the two only started laying today. Plus, the first layer went on strike for like 4 days. Unfair labor practices...

It is hard to not get impatient. The ones I'm really waiting for are my Welsummers and they are only 18 wks so I do have to wait awhile longer, but waiting sucks.
