How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[Sequel]

Sticking with the 13 eggs out of now 16 hens. Both EEs did not lay again today. But they’re acting fine so hopefully they’re just taking a break. I do hope they lay tomorrow so I stop worrying - lol.

Chicken sitters came over today to debrief. Apparently it all went fairly smoothly - yea! My feed bin feeder did go bad as in moisture got inside. They think it was from condensation. That’s a problem! So have to look at it and see what’s going on. Maybe 3 weeks is too long for it to be closed up in high heat and humidity.

AC condenser bit the dust. 7 years old. Rest of unit is 15 years old. Probably will get a new on installed tomorrow. It’s a big hit on top of the vacation costs - grr. But what can you do. At least we have a window unit we bought earlier this year for after hurricanes when the power stay out for days and weeks. We have that in place in the bedroom and cranking so we are cool to sleep.

Have to finish the health checks on the rest of the hens too. Only got a handful done but overall they were good.

Tomorrow is a new day!

You are having a rough go, I’m so sorry! You have a great attitude!

Only 2 today but I think one was from the 16 week old White Rock that has a red comb and wattles. I was afraid she was a silent cockerel. The egg was 38 grams. It COULD be from Anais the 7 Y/O Faverolles but she lays close to 50g eggs and the small one today was shiny like the ones my 5 Y/O WR lays. Gonna make it hard to tell who laid which egg when she starts laying full weight eggs.

I gotta get me one of those scales! That must be so much fun to weigh them!

Three today, all pullets. I guess the two Faverolles that we’re laying are getting ready to molt. The third hasn’t decided if she’s going to lay at all before next March!

Thanks. I can either scream or laugh. Also dropped a big nut last week for a new water heater tank and system re-bed. It’s been a bad week for the old bank account.

The girls help keep me balanced. Like today they gave me 15 beautiful eggs.
