How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Only 6/13

I gave my broody BO ten eggs to hatch.

I must be nuts. Starting to hate "chicken math".

I've gone 0/6 for 7 days now...
2 are too young to lay,
3 I'm guessing must be older
But the one that's been consistant every 3 days seems to have stopped now.
I think I might get rid of 4 birds if production has stopped.
 
9 eggs today. I've been averaging 8 per day. (that is out of 17 hens) Almost all of my spring chicks are laying a lot. I assume they don't need to molt this winter since their feathers are new! The broody hen molted while she was raising her chicks, so she is back to laying now. The rest of them are molting and have stopped laying completely or have slowed down considerably. I also have one pullet who has not laid yet and I think she 8 months old already.
 
Still only 1. I mentioned how the other freeloaders might taste next to their sister's fresh egg noodles. We'll see
 
We only found 3 yesterday. We let the chickens out to free range pretty early in the day. At one point they were in the barn messing around on the hay. I'm pretty sure a couple of them laid on top of the hay and the eggs were lost between bales. :(
