I have EGGS for the first time!

[HeyItsDebV]

I am shocked! My CHIX are only 4 months old and I just found 4 small eggs in one nesting box this evening!!! Is this normal...I have 4 Rhode Island Reds that hung in and around the coop this evening instead of free ranging.... I did hear a weird screech as did the other 10 hens that are High Production Reds! I know those eggs were not in the nesting boxes this morn...and I have 12 nesting boxes and all 4 eggs were in one box....? is that strange? Did they all take turns one after the other??? I am so excited!!! Who can help me???

How cool! What are you feeding them? I can not wait until mine start!

 

[Jake the Farmer]

Woohoo! Congrats!

Yay! Doesn't sound like you need any help to me, they are doing great

It's not weird they all laid in the same box. It could have been one after another, or it could have been a big chicken pile.
