Are EE's good layers?

[AboutSixPounds]

My EE Lunch laid her first egg on Monday (2/9) and has laid a large light-blue egg every other day--3 eggs so far. Lunch was 1 day shy of 8 months old on Monday, so she made me wait a looong time! She started squatting about a month ago, and got noisier in the morning about a week before she started laying.

Hi,

I have only one EE but she is a good layer and gives me 5 to 6 pretty green eggs a week.

I really have no idea how old she was when she started laying (in the last week of November), as I bought her when she was already pretty big, but I think she may have been a late layer.

Good luck! Genie

I only have one EEer so I know for sure when she started laying and how often--I'd say between 26-27 weeks, and she was really reliable, giving me 4-5 large yummy eggs a week.

She's dried up this month, though. Her comb as gone darker and she won't squat for me anymore. COME ON, SPRING!

My orp is broody atm and so all I have is Silkies laying for me. Pathetic!

I have four EEs and got them young in August. Just before Christmas I got my first egg and now, every day I get 3 -4 eggs. So we're at 75 - 100% production! LOL
