I have 3 hens and 2 roosters. Small coop for roositng only. They have a large pen and we also have 40 acres but they haven't ventured far. Other than a huge cedar tree they enjoy dust bathing under, they stay pretty close to the house or workshop. Don't know if any of that was necessary but anyway. On 8/23/17 we had our first egg and I've counted 13 today. Usually an egg day. I believe they're from the same hen, and I think she is an Austroloup . My question is how many more will she lay until she starts to set? If she stops laying for a day or two does that mean she's done? How long should i give her before we try to get an incubator and go that route? I'm new at this so any advice would be helpful.
