Bielfelder has only layed one egg so far.

Hello Chicken Fam,

Question; I have a Biel Felder named Shai, she was the last to lay of my flock of 8 ladies. The others produce pretty regularly now, but I noticed she has layed 1 egg. I also noticed she is the lowest on the pecking order, and wondered if that had anything to do with it? I try to give her a few minutes extra to free range in the yard by herself to get more protein from insects and such. Any suggestions?

When did the first egg from Shai come?

Are you sure she's not laying in a hidden nest in the yard while free-ranging?

April 29th. But I think she laid yesterday! I try to take photos so I can tell them apart. But April 29th was the first day I gathered 4 brown eggs. So I knew all my brown layers were laying. I will keep watch, I just wondered why she has been so inconsistent?

I'm pretty sure she isn't.
