I've heard Orpingtons usually lay an average of 3 eggs in a week. But then some people tell me that they lay 6 or 7 a week. Does anybody with experience know what they lay on average per week? Thanks!
I have no idea,but would like to follow this post as I have 4 that have not started laying yet but should soon. I hope.
I have two that are 10 weeks old now. I know practically everything about orpingtons, except for how many eggs they lay. Everyone seems to say something different and I haven't gotten a solid answer, so I figured this would be a good topic to discuss with people who might actually know what they are talking about lol! Good luck with yours! How old are they?
I have a Buff Orpington that started laying at 21 weeks and has laid an egg a day since then. It has been four weeks now that she has been doing this. I am surprised because I had also read to only expect 3-4 eggs a week. She is from a hatchery. I don't know if that makes a difference. I am very proud of my girl!
