I went to collect eggs at noontime and 3 of my hens are starting to molt quite a bit. I noticed it last week, but wow, what a difference a day makes. They look pitiful and it's just beginning.

My EE is 10 1/2 months old, still no eggs! She's the only one not laying (besides the three 10 week olds).

Don't feel to bad..nothing in my flock is laying except the White Leghorns.

I decided to breed my doe a little later in the fall for a later spring kidding since it was so cold last year. I dry her up in sept and bred in late November/December. She is due near the end of April. By the sounds of her breathing now, I'm afraid we may have another full house! The new doe I got was born in October 2014, but she has some growing to do before I breed her, if I even do this year,

They are here! I will be giving most of these to friend- she ordered them.

Oh I had plenty of eggs this winter, as soon as the solstice passed, they went gangbusters. I get more than a dozen daily. This is their first molt.
