You need to post some pictures of your eggs. I just love seeing all those colorful eggs. I went out and found another new egg and it was even more pink than the first one. I would do a back flip if i could.

My first EE was 18 weeks old when she laid her first egg and then the other EE's started laying the following week. Maybe its all those raisins i have been giving them. They just love raisins.

Almost all of my EEs and Ameraucanas didn't start laying until they were in their 30th week... what's up with that?!

Can't wait till October and my basket too should be colorful!

Hmmm, i wonder why they havent starting laying. I fed the starter/grower and treats each day. I would give them barely warm oatmeal and just regular oatmeal a couple of times a week. Left over bread (just a slice or two between 14 chickens). I take a cold hot dog or two one a week. I hold them in my hands and let them pick pieces off. Oh i feed raisins. Half a box every third day or so. Maybe its the goodies that i feed. My husband brought home 2 50 lb bags of wheat seed and they just love it, i give it as scratch for them each day. As soon as i got my first egg i added layer feed to the starter/grower until the starter/grower was gone and over the next week 3 more EE's started laying.
