How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Awesome coloring. What hen lays the pink colored eggs?

I'm new and one of my pullets has been doing the submissive squat for about 10 days. I am so excited! When will I ever get an egg?!?

depending on breed and age and other factors, it could be by end of the weekend or into next couple wks (our 1 buff Orpington has been doing squat for entire week-not eggs but 1 of the easter eggers squatted and the next couple days, she popped her 1st egg out (the kids say comet or whoever just popped an egg)
Generally speaking though...you should be seeing your 1st egg within the next couple of weeks

It's official! All 3 of the Easter Eggers are laying now
How come BA were laying, none laid yet? Should I be worried or does it take a couple times before they get regular? Past 3 days, we've had at least one BA lay & yesterday had all 3 lay*only 3 of the 6 are laying already*
Thx I'm sure it's fine just curious

@mamatink7 different breeds start different ages some of the same type
will be different in how they lay

Free range for the most part.

thx. Even if they already started laying, they will skip days till their bodies kick in to lay eggs? Mind you, I've had golden comets lay almost every day since each one started (I actually believe the youngest GC is laying our mystery egg but haven't caught her yet). Thats why I'm curious
