Lack of eggs

[Grum P Oldamn]

The egg production has resumed so it looks like it was simply a case of the girls going through their first moult......happy chappy

I wonder if that's what mine are up to. There are way more feathers than usual, but nobody looks much different. Now I'm down to like 2 eggs, if I'm lucky! Even my trusty Pekin duck stopped laying since almost a week ago! Hmmm.

Mine are 10 months old, out of 16 I got 3 eggs and there are feathers everywhere. I hate to think I have to wait 2 to 6 months to start getting eggs again. Guess I'll have to buy some eggs. UCK

Hi both, firstly Lauren, yes, I had the same, the girls looked healthy but there were more feathers lying around - I put it down to an over zealous rooster , it was only when I looked under their existing feathers that I saw the new ones coming through....Next gmyers, it only lasts a little over two weeks, so hang in there

That's good to here! Thanks so much Grum
