First Egg Countdown

[Happy Chooks]

Chynasparks - practicing in the nest boxes is a good sign, you'll have eggs really soon.

Foxychicken - you are getting closer.

Thanks Happy Chooks and Foxy chicken. I was hoping that's the case. I'll let you know

My ladies still aren't laying. Maybe they are sterile. Dumb chickens.

If they put a tenth of the effort they put into pooping on my patio into egg production we'd have cartons full by now!

B1 was singing an egg song yesterday and I went looking and ... Nothin. Boo.

Patience is a virtue. Blah blah blah

I even bought another dozen eggs!

No eggs yet! The waiting is killing me!
Everyday, twice a day, 3xs a day, I check.... But nothing!
4 girls 21 weeks. First flock.
Not even my leghorn is producing. Thought she was close 2weeks ago. Bright red comb & wattle. but no song, no squatting.
My BSL is getting vocal, but not "the song"....which i heard on YouTube. Just more vocal.
My EE isn't even thinking about it.
I don't think they've looked at the nest boxes. Opened up at 18 weeks.
Lazy lazy lazy girls! Jeeeeeeez!

My barred is acting really lazy the last two days I don't know if its cause she's going to lay or what anyone else experience this?

Yep same here. One egg in three days... Sheesh

That should do it! And if not? Try buying two dozen!

No eggs yesterday, but we got our second egg today. Not sure yet who it was, but it's the same size and shape as our first, so somebody's on an every-other-day schedule.
