Hello,
I have six pullets 20 weeks old. Last week my first egg from my Plymoth Rock. First egg hard shell next egg same, next one soft shell. Then no egg the next double yoke. Now then hard.
Second pullet Orpington she may have done the soft shell and now laid two hard shells not in the nesting box yet.
Looks like two other hens are squatting.
My question is this is all normal and I have just put them on layer feed but they don't like it and all hens are not eating like they should. I initially bought layer feed from the mill all organic includes pellets, no corn, millet, oils black sunflower seeds , And more. The only thing they eat out of it is a black sunflower seeds. I bought a new organic crumble same brand as my growth feed. But they won't eat that like before. Any recommendation?
