27 week old EE and no eggs yet!

I smell a rooster.

Any day. And you could follow her if she ranges. The EE's are notorious for staying out all night...If ya know what I mean

 

hunny, shes not saying that its a rooster... what I think she is trying to say is that she is sneaking off with a rooster... at least that is the way i see it.

 

I'm worried about one of my ee girls, I have two ee and e rsl. my rsl's have been layng since they were 19 weeks, the ee lay about 3 weeks later. Now the other one hasn't laid yet and its been almost one month since the other started laying. She is a girl. I was told to wait. Some are slow ovulators ,as some girls can be when they are of that pubescent age. Be patient I'm happy to have her she is so pretty. i'll keep her know matter what. I'm glad you wrote in I feel better knowing mine isn't the only one. that gives me hope how about you?

 

Good luck, if they free range she could also be hiding them. Or she maybe laying brown eggs instead of green ones so you aren't noticing.

 

Some birdies are just late bloomers...be patient with her. My crowing hen Slifer the Sky Dragon didn't lay until she was about 2 years old...and that was with hormone treatment. And it was only one lovely baby yellow egg.
