i now have 2 black sex link hens, 1 black australop hen,2 buff orpington hens.. their a month an a half away from laying.. Any info on these breedS?
Boy.seems you should have tons of eggs from all of those breeds. I loved my sexlink , she was my most faithful layer.and my 5 month old Austalorps are all laying everyday now..........dont know bout the orphingtons...... good luck..sounds like a wonderful flock......
I've had Australorps for years - I love them! They lay tons of eggs, are fairly hardy through the winter (I live in Vermont), and are basically very healthy and hardy birds. The oldest one I ever had was 11, and she still layed eggs every couple of days in the spring and summer. I've even had some that laid more than one egg in a 24 hour period!
