One of our Buff Orpingtons hatched out her brood about 8 weeks ago (mid June). The three pullets are growing fast and seem to be approaching teenager-hood...

Momma hen is still very much a big part of their lives. They all hang out together through the day and she still calls them for a newfound grub or whatever... together they just began perching on the main roosting bar last night (from a nest in the brush outside- maybe too much lightening and rain-LOL). So now, when can I conceivably start expecting momma hen to lay eggs again?
