One egg - the first in almost a week. Between the winds last Sunday steady at around 25 mph/40kmph with gusts above 40mi/65km and the temperatures in the 20s(f)/ -1 - -5(c) for two days combined with getting locked in the run for the growing season at the same time, the ladies are both confused and very upset. Finally the 96(f)/35(c) has them in a state where they could no longer hold them in.

I have 1 Rhode Island Red Rooster, and 4 Rhode Island Red Hens, and they are a year old. Ever since they started laying faithfully, I get 4 eggs on most days. I can just about count on both hands the number of days that I only had 3 eggs in a day, even during Fall/Winter. So I'm happy!

Got 9 from the chickens today. I didn't get the duck eggs picked up so I did find 1 eaten and the other one I didn't find. Also on a sad note Darlin wanted outside yesterday and today she's MIA

Just 2 but today was the first day with more than an hour of clear skies and above freezing temps since daylight savings so not surprised. Everyone is starting though!

10 so far but I always get more later, I wonder if the reason why some of the hens don't lay in the morning is because they're pullets?

They lay on a 26 to 28 hour cycle depending on breed so it gets a little later each day till its too late in the day to lay and thats usually when they skip their day. And pullets are more inconsistent with the cycle timing if theyre new layers too. I also mainly get afternoon eggs as well haha
