How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Try to find a good boy, there's plenty to be had. Your girls miss him. Mine lay less when there's no rooster in with them. Chickens do have feelings, contrary to popular belief. I had a hen sulk in the corner and not lay for nearly three months after I lost one of my roosters. She started laying again shortly after I got a new rooster. I'd try to find a nice rooster, there's sweet ones on craigslist all the time, and a lot are even free. Good luck :-D

Check your local feed store for roosters as well...
 
1/18 lol.
Only my second egg EVER! My first one came on Sunday!

3 of my girls are 24 weeks: one Orpington, one Wyandotte, one Easter Egger. I'm pretty sure it's the Orpington laying it but I don't really know how to tell the difference between those and the Wyandotte color. They have been fairly small but I heard their first few will be. AND both have been laid in the nesting box!! So proud! (The fake eggs definitely worked)
I also have 4 other girls who are 22 weeks and have been getting "squatty" lately too.
My other 11 will be awhile because they are still only 14 weeks! So excited!

The egg on the left looks like my Wyandotte's eggs. The egg on the right looks like my Orpington's eggs.
Did you get more eggs yet?
