Not that I could tell. It's miserably hot here. They just came in to roost.

I so glad that we decided to make the chicken yard when we built the poultry complex. The girls literally charge out the door as soon as we open it. They love their yard.

Thanks!! They are doing very well. Kinda spoiled though. lol.. Coming up on 17 weeks. Paying zero attention to the nests so far but hopefully...

Quote: Oh, I wouldn't hold your breath.....neither of those breeds(orps and marans?) aren't likely to lay before 24-26 weeks.
That dark one in the foreground appears to be a mix tho, so maybe<shrugs>.
Any combs reddening up yet?
Mine are 18 weeks, couple have gotten pretty red and been mated...so I added a couple extra nests into the coop.
They are easter egger mixes, some hatched here some from hatchery.
