My one girl lays approx. 3 eggs a week, sometimes 4. They are small (but not as small as banty eggs) to medium, depending on the size of the hen. I prefer her eggs over my other bird's because her's are the best size proportion not to find any blood spots or meat spots in there.

She started laying at around 9 months old (Polish are late layers) and faithfully lays until the winter. In the winter, we might get 1 egg a week.

Mine lay an egg almost every day but they are still young.

They very individually, I've heard. Also, I think Sand Hill Preservation had info on the different Polish breeds (of their strains, anyway) laying different amounts. I think.

My Polish girls started laying at around 25 weeks. They are a little over a yr old now lay a white slightly pointed egg about every other day.

I bought them not caring if they ever laid an egg! They're so pretty too!

The lady at the feed store suggested that I put Vicks on my little Polish Bantams head to discourage pecking it. What to you think...brillant or incredibly stupid idea?
Thanks,
