show off.

Dang, 13 girls here, and 2 eggs in the last 3 weeks. I am getting seriously irritated.

out of 117 birds we got 11 eggs yesterday. about 3/4 of those birds are laying age......

Wow. Wish some of you were closer. My girls don't know they're supposed to be slowing down. I've got one slacker and two silkies with chicks, otherwise everyone else is laying almost every day. I've been stockpiling eggs and waiting for them to slow down so I could deworm them. I guess I'm just going to have to do it anyway and waste all those eggs.

Well, I can't complain, up until just recently, I was still getting 2-3 eggs/day, with only 3 hens that are actually of laying age. Now I'm down to 1/day... 2 are taking turns, and the 3rd decided she wanted to be a Mommy again

I'm still getting little eggs from my bantam polish, cochins, and seramas, but they don't count for too much (I incubate all 3 of those breeds) since they aren't really for eating

I feel half the pain. Out of 14 hens in one coop, I get 3 eggs a day. Sometimes 4. In my Pullet coop, I'm getting 13 out of 16, sometimes 10 out of 16.

not fair.

I get one egg a day, from my sweet RIR girlie - and she walks all the way to the garage to lay it in the horse hay

I don't even have to go out in the snow to get it!

I've gotten used to it, 5 hens and all are molting except for one. Mouse is so reliable.

I wish you all where closer I have eggs everywhere, I am scrambling eggs for the dogs several times a week now. Of course they aren't complaining.

I've got 24 standard size hens and get 18 to 20 eggs per day from them and thats not even counting the bantam orps.

Oh Im finally getting eggs....its just a matter of trying to get them before they freeze

 

[NewHobbyForMe]

I just got my first EGG today!! WOOHOO

Here is a picture with the RIR that laid it, it is her first and I think it was large for a first egg.

I'm a very proud chicken mom right now. I kept telling the four RIR's I was going to cook chicken and dumplings for Christmas if I didn't get my first egg by Christmas! Now I know they understood. HA
