How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[Aunt Angus]

6 out of 15, 0 of 4 new all big birds, 0 of 5 banty think they the 4 are ticked about the new girl.

Divas...

They are spoiled no doubt, better half cares mostly for them.

I got 10 eggs yesterday and 7 today. Out of 23 potential layers. Last week I was getting 2 or 3 eggs a day. They are loving the sunshine (longer days) and "warmer" weather - it's been getting up into the 40's lately!

1 egg yesterday. And it had a bit of a peck mark in the shell (broke through). I'm hoping for 2-3 today....

I did some rearranging in the coop Saturday, and I bet that put a bit of a monkey wrench into the works. I have one girl in a makeshift "room" to herself, as she was getting bullied. Hopefully in a few days, I can let her back out and she'll stand up for herself. Because she was literally squatting for the bully, and getting pecked badly.

If this doesn't help, the bully is going into the time out room.

That's stressful. I hope the bully gets an attitude adjustment.

Yeah. This was a problem a few months ago, but it seemed to resolve itself. Until last week.

Came home to find 2 eggs for the first time ever. 1 on the ledge in front of the nest boxes (with a crack) and 1 in the nest box that rainbow doesn't use and Martha didn't use when she was laying. I think that both the June babies have layed their first eggs.

Is the cracked egg safe to eat? The membrane is intact and it's clean.

Yes I've eaten cracked eggs and it's fine

2 today. May get a 3rd later. Hard to tell. Brought in the one I've left for 3 days and replaced it with a 3rd golf ball. I think they've got the hang of the new nest. How long can you safely leave a fertilized egg in the nest anyway if no one's broody and the weather is cool?
