I have noticed that my chickens always lay eggs that are about the same size. My Barred Rock Smokey's are always smallest. My Black Star Lafonda's are always biggest, My EE Lord Carbury's are always medium as are my RI's. Since I only have one of each breed I was wondering if this is dependant on breed or induviual chicken.
I will be picking up a dozen or so chicks tomorrow to establish a laying flock. I like the BR's but don't want to get a bunch of small egg layers. I will be getting a mix no matter what, but will go light on breeds that are notoriously small egg layers. They said they think they will have BRs EEs Buff Orps and RIs. What mix would you get?
