How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

it has been a strange egg week here... i did switch to an organic layer pellet at the beginning of last week so i think this might have something to do with it?

so here goes: we have 8 hens total that lay...

monday - total eggs 7 - 1 was huge DBL. yolk (80.3g) - 1 soft shell

= 6 for the day (a first for both!)
tues. - total 8 - 1 soft shell again = 7 day should mention i went out and got oyster shell to help supplement bc we got 2 soft shell eggs - im guessing the organic layer has a bit less calcium than the feed i was using before so they NEED the oyster shell now - before i was giving them alot more egg shells back too - but we have sold/given away a few dozen eggs -
wed - total 4 - 1 huge DBL? yolk (80.3g) - 1 soft shell again

= 3 day
today - total 7 all good no soft shells

but the BRs eggs today and the few from this week have been very light in color - not brown like last week, they are all fairly new layers so maybe just the feed switch and maybe they are still getting the hang of things? i try not to worry about them, but its hard!

so far 4 out of 5!!!!

Hoping our little Sarah has begun laying again after her brush with death

She was the last one in the nest today and low and behold and egg was there and I really tried to watch carefully this time!

If we get one more then I know for sure! I am hoping that she is back though. Noticed he comb has turned a little redder again so.......

Still early in the day here (not quite 2pm) so there is plenty of time for one more egg!
