I brought home 3 laying hens this week. From the three hens I have found 4 eggs since Wednesday. Is this a normal frequency?
They are barred rocks a little over 1 year old.
I kept them on the same layer food. They were in a decent sized coop and now are free range. I have found the eggs all in the same space but not in the nesting boxes.. I will need advice on how to get them to lay eggs in teh nesting boxes if that is possible.

Anyway.. I keep looking around the yard but have not found anything yet we do have lots of shrubs and shade they scavenge in. Any ideas?


Thanks!

I would not be suprised if the heat is affecting them as well.
I will do more searching but so far all the eggs layed have been in the same nest that the made on their own next to the house.
I appreciate you taking the time for some additinal info!
Have a Great week!
