It has been a very long dry spell for lack of eggs....probably 2-3 eggs a week from 6 hens. I had a conversation about a month ago that I was rehoming the three that are over 2 or 3 yrs old. They just were not producing at all.
Then miraculously, like they heard me talking, they started laying this week. Out of 5 hens (one passed away since then), I had 4 eggs, then 3 eggs, then 3 eggs, then 4 eggs. That's 12 eggs in 4 days!! The drought is gone and eggs are coming my way. Did they know it was daylight savings on Sunday????
My sweet poor Sarah who was my first chicken died about a week ago but her friends are laying in her honor......
