Is it Spring yet!?

[MandaRae]

Y'all my Easter eggers have been on strike since November due to the cold weather so i was pretty excited and happy to see this Blue egg today!
My Brown layers have been giving me 1-2 eggs a day but this was the only egg i got today!
16 lazy hens
I can't wait for Spring!
I am eggcited for hatching season!

I have a second hen that is looking at the nesting box with an expression that says, "I remember doing something really important in there before. What was it?"

it's funny how they don't mind eating all the food but laying and egg is just too much work

It's been since....earlyish October? for my 4...no one seems to care about doing that ever again. We moved them to a new fancy giant coop Thanksgiving weekend. Two of them have their feathers all back in(they'll be 2 April 1) and their combs are getting darker but alas...I had no idea I would have a 4 month dry spell every year! Hoping my Brahma gets on it soon, they are supposed to be winter layers, no? At least they are all roosting now, the little starter coop I had before they couldn't all fit...they free range on half an acre, with pellet feed and oyster shell. I have done all the things...and I am one impatient chicken lady.

 

[Mrs. K]

Haven't had one since, but I am still checking.

I haven't had one since before Thanksgiving

It’s bee so long!!! And my pullets I got in MAY still haven’t laid an egg. None of them!!! Although I’m on vacation so I’m hoping to find some of their eggs when I get back

Two pullets started laying at 5 months. The third one is 7 months old, and I'm waiting....

One hen has started back up, one could lay just about any day now, and the third had a rough molt and I hope she takes another month or two off.

All my "Old Girls" (2.5yrs old) laid all through their first winter now I'm lucky if i get an egg a day from the brown layer flock.
The easter eggers started to lay in the middle of winter last year but this year nada.
My new pullets were hatched in May and I'm pretty sure they are to ones I'm getting 1 or 2 eggs a day from.

Super confusing! Yet the weather has also been pretty crazy so i guess I understand
