Well, it's not entirely a bad thing. I recall the vet telling me hens are born with all the eggs they'll ever lay. In microscopic pre-egg form of course. So if they start late, they'll continue late until they run out of eggs. And all those reproductive hormones are tightly linked with aging. So Snow and Belle have the potential to live long, predation notwithstanding. Ummm i love scientific detail but some folks hate it. I hope I haven't upset you. My intention was to cheer you up.Nope, I think I’m going to be waiting until spring now with the shorter days and colder weather
