Oh thank goodness I was worried they weren’t happy chickens! I just went out and gave them some of what my best friend and I call “chicken crack” which is the garden delight package and some mealworms. LolNew layers often take a while in between eggs. Nothing to worry about.
I have a question; my buff was just singing the egg song but no egg anywhere. Is this usual to for new layers? I love the egg song she can surely hit the high notes lol
Okay can I bug you some more? My americuana who has been extremely reliable on her egg laying started hiding, and laying eggs outside her nest AND they were soft shell. I also believe she may have been egg bound, because I brought her in the house to cuddle her to monitor her and she legit laid an egg on me and it was a soft shell egg. I went and bought oyster shell cause I had no idea they needed that. So I hope that helps but should I be worried?? I added pictures of the two soft shell eggs, her comb, her poop right before laying her egg on me, and when I found her behind the coops laying her egg that was soft shell as well.Sometimes they sing the egg song, even if there is no egg. Chickens can be weird like that.
