4/5. I think one’s laying in where the goose is sitting though and I’m not even going to try to get any eggs from in there . Still, pretty good odds.

8 again today. I’ve noticed that I’m getting very few EE eggs lately and 3 of them are my newest layers. They were getting after it for a while. Wonder what’s up??

10 eggs! I have 13 pullets, I don't expect my scissor beak to produce any time soon, if ever...so I still have a couple of freeloaders, or maybe some that aren't laying daily.

Looks like my egg basket except for the white ones. My wife has “encouraged” me to get a couple white egg layers. Not a lot of Leghorns for sale around here though. What other breeds lay white eggs?

I have 2 BBS Ameraucanas (laying blue/very close to green), 3 EE (my scissor, one that lays a brown egg, and one that lays green), 2 Leghorns, 1 RIR, 1 Golden Buff, 1 white cochin, 1 GLW, and 1 BCM.

I ordered 3EE, 1GLW, 1Delaware (turned out to be a roo and rehomed him), 5 "Production" mix (whatever was available), and 5 "rare breed" mix chicks, lol. My BCM laid a very heavy bloom on her egg today, usually it looks a lot darker. I only get whites from the leghorns...but Austra Whites, and I think Frost whites also lay white? There's a bunch when I went looking on Meyer Hatchery...not super found of having all white chickens, they get dirty FAST, lol. I have 3 all white gals, plus a white Staffordshire....he's brown most of the summer, it's an uphill battle to keep him out of the dirt!

Got about 3 dozen chicken eggs today, 8 quail eggs, and 4 duck eggs.

I have a few Anconas and a Lakenvelder who lay white eggs almost as big as my Leghorns. And my Minorcas are pretty decent white layers too.
