I'm a one year backyard caretaker but new to your group. I only have 3 and 3 more peepers to join my flock, staying warm under their heat lamp. I like variety so I have all different girls and NO roosters. My 3 girls that are laying are all 10- 11 months old now. I have a buff Orpington, an Australorp and an Araucana. My 3 new peepers are a lace winged Wyandotte, a Barred Rock and a Black Sex Link. I have named all of course and weigh eggs daily, no double yolks yet but my Buff, Henretta, lays eggs the size of duck eggs on occasion.
Guess you could say I'm becoming obsessed?? No, but really, I love this new hobby and the fresh eggs to use in my cake decorating are a nice thing to have on hand.
Any proven methods for picking Hens? I still want to get a couple more chicks. Off to Monday's routine, bye
