I have 5 BRs.
Y'day (8/15/10) I got two eggs at about 10 AM.
Then I got another egg at about 11 AM.
All three are good eggs in the nest boxes.
Nothing later in that day (as of 8 PM).
This morning 7 AM (8/16/10), I found two thin shell
eggs on the floor (below roost area).
We got our first egg last Sunday and are getting 2 or 3 eggs per day since then.
But I only found two thin shells middle of the week and then today.
Based on the 26 hour cycle, I am thinking, todays thin shells cannot be
from the 3 hens y'day. Going by that theory, all 5 are laying, but only
3 are giving hard shell eggs and two are dropping thin shells under the roost
or outside somewhere (they freerange).
Any other possibilities ?
