This time of year, it is not a big deal to have a dud. Decreasing light winter coming it is the time of the year they either delay laying, if they are pullets or stop laying if they are hens.

Ah, I wasn't think of this when I started this thread. Being summer for some people may give an advantage, haha, but a dud is still a dud. We are down to approximately 10 hours of light a day, and still getting shorter.

View attachment 1177040 I think my Easter Eggers will be my “official” entries. Theyve both been squatting for a couple of weeks now even though they’re only 23 weeks old

That's a fine squat!

Wait. What is she eating?
Lots of protein, plenty of calcium and minimal treats?
I have to rule here with an iron fist. Indoors and out!
Because my DH thinks treats=Love
But love does not =omelets
