Just a question I can't seem to find an answer to
It's my first full winter (in the UK) with my 3 rescued ex-batts and I'm still getting 2 eggs a day
My theory is that one chicken isn't laying. I've (accidentally) disturbed her - been up to their pen whilst she'd been in the nest box so she has come out again - but there's been no evidence that she has laid. She used to lay large eggs but we've only had smaller sized ones recently so...
I was wondering could she be laying just smaller sized eggs? Or is it likely that she isn't laying at all?
She is otherwise okay in herself although she has lost most of her fluffy bottom feathers.
Any suggestions and replies welcomes!
Thanks in advance!
