How many eggs do you get each day?

[DeeTee]

My 5 pullets (26 weeks old) were giving me 4 or 5 a day, mostly medium size with the occasional double yolk.
Since this past Sunday I have 3 hens that are 1 1/2 years old as well, now getting 6 or 7 per day, including 3 large from the hens.

I have 8 hens laying and get around 6-7 eggs a day. I have 5 more to start laying any time now. They start adding up fast, had to give a dz. away this week. Trying to sell what I can.

I have 17 hens and am getting anywhere from 5 to 8 eggs day. Once in a while I'll get 10 or 11 eggs a day. They are all about 30 weeks old, but some of the girls haven't started laying yet and I'm getting a bit impatient!

I have 5 black australorps and right now I am getting 1-2 a day. However, my first hen to lay has consistantly laid 1 egg a day for the past 7 days. Yesterday she took a day off(I would too, if I were her!), and we found a new pullet egg. I Believe we now have 3 of the 5 laying. So, we should be getting 2-3 per day pretty consistantly. The other 2 pullets are getting closer to laying, but haven't started yet. Their combs and wattles are starting to deepen in color and size(Finally!). So, we are happy.

Ok, Colored - that is a LOT of eggs!!! Do they make baskets big enough to collect all those?!

And how long does collecting them all take you?!

11 a day from 12 young hens...

I'm up to 5 eggs a day from 20 pullets. The rest should start at anytime...

I have 32 chickens and average about 25 eggs per day. In the last two weeks it has gone down to 21 or so.

At this point the chickens are paying for themselves! WooHoo!

4-5 eggs a day

10 standard sized pullets, all good laying breeds, but 2 are too young and I guess the rest are slowing down from the weather

12 bantum pullets - Silkies and D'Uccles, so not fast-maturing or consistant layers and THREE are BROODY!

I'm getting 8-11 per day from 13 pullets.
