11 today from 12 RIR pullets 25 weeks 2 days old I THINK they're all laying, not sure (tried butt check but this is my first flock) but I've been consistently getting 10-11 eggs a day So several must be laying every day, and perhaps they were kind enough to rotate who took the day off

Yes I do lighting. I'd kill myself if I tried walking in there without it, as said light is on an extension cord with a pull chain nowhere near the door...besides, I'm selling the extra eggs to pay for their feed

4 out of 5 today, but the one just started laying yesterday, so she isn't regular yet. And of course my daily duck egg.

I think I'm missing this year molt wise unless they come on soon - my eldest girls are nearly a year
Haven't checked the eggs yet. Think I had 3 yesterday again.

The most common is like 18 months so do not until 24 month have to count back to when they feathered in

They feathered in in December last year, born November so won't be 18 months until May next year.

Will be interesting to see if they lay through the winter then blow all their feathers in the spring. I've only gotten chicks in the spring and they always wait until fall the next year to moult.

6 out of 6 today. So they are all officially laying. I got 2 younger runners that haven't laid yet.

1 again today, Arcadia again. Seems the only two laying are she and Vienna, both April hatch Barred Rocks.

Since they just started laying they are still working out the system. I wouldn't expect an egg a day week after week from any hen of any age.

What breeds do you have?

Thank you for answering me! So sorry for getting back to you so late!!!! But I have 2 Barred Plymouth Rocks and 3 Buff Orpingtons. 5 eggs this morning!! So here’s to hoping the laying gets more regular. Down here in Louisiana we have been having CRAZY weather, one day it’s HOT & HUMID and the next it’s way cooler so maybe that has something to do with it? Or maybe she’s a late bloomer and getting getting used to laying?
