She sounds very specialSo far she has turned out to be a formidable layer. But, in all fairness, she's actually on her second laying period now.
She started laying in October, when she was 6 months 9 days old, and between October 19th and January 14th she laid 44 eggs. She then took a brief six week vacation but started laying again February 26th. I'm expecting her 79th egg this morning - which will be her 35th on this roll.
She laid 67 eggs before she was one year old and actually had to leave her birthday party to produce no. 68. Yes, we threw a small birthday party for her, and since she's imprinted on humans she really enjoyed the company. She doesn't care for cake, but she did get her share of the birthday bread rolls I made for the occasion.
