Some of mine lay everyday and some are about every other day. Depends on what they are mixed with.

I bet that egg is a double yolker.

We've not named our trio of Easter Eggers yet we thought we'd wait until we knew who was a girl and who was a boy
But here are some photos, We bought these from a local fellow, who could talk chicken, but I'm not sure he really knows chickens...
So we will wait and see, if we have all roos we'll find a fave and try for a couple more hens, we want the colored eggs.

Here's my Easter Egger, Fish Sandwich. I don't know what color eggs she will lay, or if she has already. Alas, my girls are all egg eaters, so it's kind of hard to tell who is laying and who isn't, or who the bits of egg that I find came from. I'm working on plans for a roll-away nesting box, hopefully that'll help me save a few. In the meantime, they're fun pets, and I would have to say that Fish Sandwich is has one of the most fun personalities among them. She's not terribly friendly, but she's very curious, a little bit pushy, and makes me laugh.

That stinks on the egg eating! Do you give them a supply of crushed oyster shell? I have heard that they sometimes eat the shells because they need additional calcium.

You might also try putting golf balls in the nests....a few pecks at them has a tendency to break that habit!
