How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Only 2 today. One was from Penelope (2015 EE). She has NEVER EVER laid after her fall moult until sometime in February before. And I KNOW it was her as she was in one of the open nest boxes when I went down for morning animal chores. She came out after I gave her some BOSS since she missed out when I tossed it to the other girls before hearing her talking to me from the coop.
 
2019 spring pullets or girls that have gone through at least their first adult moult? Amazingly one of my older EEs laid yesterday and today, something I don't expect this time of year based on 6 years of history. The ones that are laying are the girls from Meyer that came in early June.

That seems to be the typical pattern. The ones I got in late April prior years started in their first fall then QUIT for the winter. I figured they would start earlier, like when the older girls quit for the year and keep going but 2 tries with that didn't prove to be true.

Mine?

I have 6 pullets and 22 birds over 3 years old with some of those over 6.....even 2 that are 10+.
