How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[blackacres]

Yesterday the bantys only gave me one. Fingers crossed for a Christmas Day miracle that one of the bigs starts laying!

For those who have been getting little to no eggs, how old and what breed are your hens?

My “bigs” that aren’t laying-
RIR 20 weeks
Marans 19 weeks
Barred Rock 21 weeks
Cream Legbar 21 weeks

So they’re all pretty young.

Yes, they are young. Around the same age as my SS. I don't think she will lay until spring.

But who am I to speculate anything. My SS is 5+ mos old and is in love with a 9 week old cockerel (see pics). She stares at him for so long and tries to feed him. LOL I also have laying hens with orange feet and other hens laying at night I think. I also have a cockerel crowing since around 5 weeks old. Chicken weirdness I tell ya lol
