My Buff Orp lays long eggs

they look like what my dh calls missle eggs. At least yours lays you eggs mine would only lay 1 egg a week so we gave her away. She was over a year old and only laid 1 egg a week . We had bought some pullets from ideal and dh said that if they all were like her we would go bankrupt feeding them and getting nothing in return so he sold 5 10 week old orpington pullets basically gave them away sold them for 2.00 each

 

Pics please!

 

my buff orp are laying small pink eggs! One just started laying and the other one has been laying for a month. Will the eggs get larger and darker?

My girls who are all just in the startup phase of their egg laying are laying these missle eggs too - a mix of buff orps and barred rocks.

For some reason, the hotter it gets, the more of them I am getting too - maybe it's a sign of the heat?

They still taste yummy though!

 

one of my polish aslo lays missile shaped eggs

 

Mine lay light tan to cream colored eggs, fat and nicely shaped. No torpedo eggs at all.

 

One of my RIR hens usually lays a torpedo egg, too. I agree, they look funny!
