How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[MickeysChicks]

Things that make you go hmmmmm..........Small Coop 4/5 leghorn eggs; Large coop 4/7 possible layers. 4 one year old Red Comets , two 21 week (today!) Buffs and a 21 week old Brahma. The Red Comets all lay in the same nest, the other three nests have been ignored until this week, there is evidence of some nesting activity in two of the other nests. This afternoon found three normal brown eggs in the usual nest and then......1 pinkish brown egg in another nest...hmmmm......

Egg on the leftside of towel is a shade lighter and a little pinkish( it's also rounder), was found in different nest. The three on the right I'm fairly certain my Red Comets laid in their usual nest. In the background , a weeks worth of eggs!

3 chicken eggs today

3 chicken eggs from the control group

must be adjusting to having their coop cleaned out that just seemed to have upset the entire day

0 eggs recovered as 2 eggs were found by the crows and they are not flying off with them now just emptying the contents and leaving the shells on the floor dirty buggers

Temp 112 F degrees

and cloudy but no rain just muggy all day and I was thinking it was cooling off for the summer but it seems the heat was just taking a rest .....

We had another Welsummer hen join the ranks of the laying. That gave us our first 8 egg day. So at the moment we have 5 Buff Orpington hens laying and three Welsummer with 5 more girls left to produce. One is a Lavender Orpington, One a Speckled Sussex, Two are Welsummers and the last one a Buff O.

I'm really impressed by the Welsummer eggs. Those little girls' eggs are bigger than the Buff O's at this point. Makes me say 'ouch!' every time I find one.

Only 6 eggs again today. Not sure why they have slowed down. They don't appear to be molting. The days have gotten noticeably shorter, maybe that's it.

So far, 5 out of 6 chickens. My last one to laid, gave us her first egg today but a little disappointed. It was from my Maran and it was just a brown egg not a chocolate egg. Oh well, at least all six are laying so far. My last easter egger to lay hasn't laid her second one but we are pretty sure she laid a few days ago her first one. I am pretty sure I ended up with three green eggs that day. Granted one was cracked so had to throw that one away.
