How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Production is down this week for me: 7, 8, or 9 out of 14, where I was up to 12, 13, and 14/14. The temps have been pretty nasty here this week, though, so I am sure that has something to do with it. Supposed to warm up today and stay in the 30's and 40's above 0 for at least a week, so things should get back to normal.
 
Too many frozen. temps were too low last night. Chickens got frozen eggs with dog this morning after I opened coop. I even had a good egg freeze in basket before i got it too the house.

Wow, and I thought it was cold here! I guess I'm lucky I have so few that I can put the eggs in my pockets to bring them in.
 
17 eggs out of 18 hens; molt is over.

Speaking of molting.....I think our molt is almost over however I have 4 RIR's and their new feathers are coming in a very pale yellowish color and they look really fuzzy! This is my first molt with the chicks so I'm not sure what it should look like when it comes back in....is that normal?

My Opringtons molted but don't have feathers coming back in yet....is that normal as well?

Thanks!
 
I have gotten 14 eggs this week!!!! *jumping for joy*

Its like a got a whole new group of chickens all of a sudden... they're not slackers anymore.
