Replacing my flock

[speckledhen]

My three and four year old hens are still laying several eggs each week, but I think offering them up on Craigslist is a good idea if you don't want to keep them that long.

Mine did really well through the winter and the ambers started laying at about 18 wks which was nice. The 6 of them are already back to 4 or 5 eggs a day now. I think I can squeeze in the 10 through next spring when the old girls will be turning 2. If the 10 get along all year then I can get 6 more next spring! And have plenty of good soup to go around.
