I have 5 pullets and a rooster, (18 weeks) none are laying yet. Hopefully soon. How long should I wait to collect eggs for incubating myself? I've heard the 2nd year layers have the healthiest chicks, is this true. Also If I do want to use a dual purpose bird for meat and eggs, how often should I hatch a new clutch? How do I avoid birth defects?Sorry for all the questions. New to chicken life
