6/9 today. I've confirmed that 7 of them are laying. One is having oopsie eggs, and I'm not sure if the other two are laying - they are my smallest birds.
 
5 of 6 today had just enough stocked to put 2 dozen aside for a big family breakfast this weekend.

My girls make me happy. But I felt bad today cuase my girls didn't get thier free range time. I didn't think to let the dog out earlier enough to bring her back inand let the chickens out before we had to do grocery shopping. So the dog had to stay out and the chickens had to stay in thier run. Given they have plenty of space in the coop and run by I like the idea of them free ranging the yard...
 
16 eggs today.

@gander007 No, I am still seeing eggs/nit clusters on the ends of the feather shafts. There are less of them on the rooster and maybe a little less on the hen, but still way too many to let them mingle with the other chickens. It is ridiculous how long I have been treating them. I am about ready to give up and cull them. I won't even be able to eat them because I have used seven dust as well as the neem oil to treat them & feel like they would be unhealthy to eat. They were suppose to be in the house for 3 weeks at the max, I believe that we are in month 3 now.I will be cleaning out the aquarium and giving them baths again tomorrow. I have eggs in the bator, some from them, but again don't know if they will even be fertile given all the treatments they have had. I guess I'll know by Easter! I also have eggs in the bator from the other hen ( who is happily living outside with the other rooster, where they belong!!)
The dog has been enjoying eating the "indoor" chicken eggs, because I won't eat or sell them since I don't know for sure if they are safe or not.

Thanks for asking!
