Went out to the barn this afternoon to fix a broken light in the coop. After being disappointed this morning of not finding anything. I get this. That makes 4 eggs in 3 days...... At least now they have nest boxes to lay in. I didn't have any nesting material in the boxes. I wasn't expecting eggs yet. I knew they were close they just turned 18 weeks. It was funny yesterday while my wife and I were in town I said we should pick up oyster shell, because they should start laying any week now. I wasn't planning out putting out any yet, just to have it. I went to set the bag in the corner of the barn and there was an egg laying there. I knew the girls had gotten into the barn while I was outside but I didn't give it much thought. After finding the one egg I decided I should prepare the nest boxes, I pick up the bale of pine shavings and low and behold there's another egg. Maybe I should let them play in the barn more often. I swear chickens amaze you every day. And heres a pic of the girls enjoying a beautiful day. As you can see there is a waiting line for the best dusting hole.
Hey, you got a chicken laying golf balls...JK! SWEET girls, and congrats on your fresh eggs! Enjoy them!
Those golf balls really work...still waiting for my first egg, shouldn't be too long, the girls were 14 weeks old yesterday...Congrats!
The other amazing part is their dirt track used to be as green as it is on the other side of the fence.
