I have 4 hens of 9 that are laying. 3 others are close to starting. I have had all of them about 3 weeks. I know 3 hens by their eggs. Today i got a new egg. I know what eggs my two Wyandottes and 1 Welsummer lays, but not sure of my New Hampshire. Egg today was light brown with small white spots. I have 2 Jersey Giants that are close to laying, but I do not think it was theirs. What color does this sound like?
New Hampshire lay brown eggs and JG vary from light brown to darker brown. Here is a good sit e for all the info. you need on breeds, their habits and egg color and size http://www.ithaca.edu/staff/jhenderson/chooks/chooks.html Best Wishes, --laura--
