We got 25 yesterday from our 29 GC's. Teresa said she's already gathered 22 this morning but we have 3 or 4 who lay as late as dusk so we'll probably be in the 24-25 range again today. You gotta love them Gold Comets 'cause they're laying machines!!!

Daaaang! We have 6 chickens, and I get 4-5 eggs a week, all from the same girl. My chooks are all almost 8 months old, but they're not interested in developing combs or wattles or getting red in the face or squatting or singing the egg song or anything related to egg laying. Anyone who ain't laying by January gets to go to freezer camp. Our RIR and BR will be 9 months old by then & if they're that old and not even maturing, they ain't gonna. They still have no comb or wattles at 7-1/2 months of age, only slightly pinkish-red face. I think I got some duds.

6/8 !! a new record, buuuuttt.... we had a cracked one =/
One of our EE's (Scruffy) likes to clear out the nestbox, she did today, and dropped her egg on the wood, cracked it =/
Planning on getting something to line the bottom of the nest boxes with later today.
Dont want this happening again
