It happened! Wyandotte laid at 42 weeks!

She is a pretty girl!

My SLW has had a red comb since 18 weeks but she is nearly 30 and has been surpassed by one of my EEs (who happens to be the only pullet laying) who started at 24 weeks. No matter how long she has APPEARED ready, she is taking her sweet time. She also grew much slower than my other birds, (especially compared to my laying EE who grew quite quickly) so I probably won’t expect any eggs from her for several weeks.

for now, I call her, Liar Liar Comb On Fire!

Update on my girl:
She squatted yesterday but It didn’t appear like a real squat, so I didn't really believe it. Today she did it again, and there’s no doubt this time! I’m hoping I get fresh brown eggs from her soon!

She may not be a liar any longer!

And I forgot to mention- Congrats on your first egg!
