Well, one of my girls, the White Leghorn, just started laying eggs over the weekend! Yay!!! Anyway, today I noticed she seems to be acting really really hungry, like running around the run picking at anything resembling food, devouring grass from my hand, etc. She's the only one doing that. I haven't had a chance to get to the feedstore for some layer pellets -- could that be the problem? Maybe the chick start just doesn't have what she needs? They get plenty of scraps throughout the day plus their chick start, and scratch and oats for snacks. There's no way she could be that hungry, right? Is this something I should be worried about? She also hasn't laid her egg yet today, I don't think. ...
Any thoughts?
