It is strange, that they change the caption under the Avatar photo.

It goes according to what level that you are in your posting's I think, and you have to take what they already have lined up for it. The only way that you can change it to whatever you want it to be is if you have the Feather Member thing.

The ones that I have do lay very nice, large, eggs.

This time I'm hatching from 3 girl's again but all 3 are NN's. I'm trying the Dark Eyed hen, The Cowgirl, and the Bluebell's egg's.

Hmm seems as though Elsa beginning to lay has caused an egg laying competition. I am still getting daily eggs,but quickly accumulating too many! I will have to switch from 2 to 3 eggs w breakfast. I know they are "just" bantam eggs, but they fill me up quite a bit

I got 24 eggs from the silver NNxRed ranger pullet in January, 23 in Feb. I have a spread sheet that I was just updating. The White one that lays green eggs was 22 in Jan and 20 in Feb.

Feb. was a shorter month.

Hmm.. maybe ill start tracking on the 1st. Their eggs look a little different from each others. Minnie's are a bit longer, but the yolk is the same size as the store large eggs.

Mostly I was surprised that the "meat" cross bird laid better both months. Feb being 3 days shorter makes some difference comparing month to month, but in a year is when you see who is a better layer. We had some very cold weather in Jan, down to 8 degrees one night, and lots of snow. So I was very happy with the number of eggs.

There is a cute little book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/109767164X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I keep it by the eggs to update it, and made a sheet from it.

That is so cute! I got my puppies (now age 2) in an emergency rehome.. the lady i got them from would take them as puppies to the vet in mexico (cheaper while also refilling meds).. they do whole baby books for dogs there! Birthdate, weights, parents info, all the vaccine dates and vaccine vial stickers, but cute little passport book format. Wish they did that here.

I have the hatch dates and first lay dates in my Google calendar but a cute book would be nicer.

I also have a chart where I write down the daily count of egg's each day of the month, but I haven't made one up for individual hen's. About 1/2 of the girl's that I have are pullet's that recently started laying egg's. I had 71 in Jan., and 113 in Feb.
