I consistently find one of the wyandotte hens sitting on a single egg that's been left in the roost. It was suggested we leave an egg once our first hen laid to get the rest going. We have 9 hens and a rooster. I think whomever started laying has stopped, as the eggs were dark brown and we haven't had any since the first week. However we pretty much always get 5 eggs a day. It's hard to say who's are who's other than our EEs. Hers are blue. Other than that we did get one very odd soft shelled egg and a couple very tiny eggs.
I'm curious why she would be so guarded with one egg?
They are just now 5.5 to 6 months old, so I'd assume most would be laying.
One EE, one golden sexlink, two black orps, and 5 wyandottes.
