Two questions:
1) I have two RIR hens. One laid her first egg three days ago, the second laid her first egg the following day (I got two little eggs that day). The next day I got one and today there were none. When hens first start laying do they start and stop?
2) I purchased a white hen the owner said was one year old. She didn't lay any eggs for a couple of weeks and today I got a little "first timer" egg. Do chickens start all over again with egglets after they molt?
