Hi, I notice most people on here seem to be from USA, I hope you don't mind someone from Wales joining you.
I am very new to this chicken thing, we have had ours for four weeks now - well one was killed by the dog unfortunately, so we replaced it with another - so really that is three for four weeks and one for three weeks.
On last Wednesday and Thurday we had two eggs laid each day - the first ones!!! - but since then we have only one egg a day, we don't know which chicken is laying it. Is there any way to tell which chicken has laid and any ideas when we are likely to expect all of them to lay.
When we bought them we bought 'ponit of lay' so I would think they were about 18 weeks old when we got them.
Any advice on how to raise chickens would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
