New Layer

[dfchaser]

Well I think one of my young hens has finally started laying. There was an egg that kind of looked like a jelly bean with a hard white tail. The shell was really thin. I tried to get a picture but my camera died, so this afternoon I can take pictures of this interesting egg.

Those are very common for new layers. I had a couple thin shelled ones before they started coming out right! CONGRATS!

Be sure to put out oyster shell or give her extra calcium

Have you switched her over to layer feed?

 

[dfchaser]

She is on layer feed, has calcium and grit all the time, once a week they all get fresh oatmeal mixed with milk. The egg actually deflated today, i guess it was only egg shaped because it was frozen!

Hmm, then I have no idea. Mabye as she lays more they will become normal =/
