seriously?

I have 13 pullets, aged 19 weeks old tomorrow. Some of them won't lay soon, and they aren't showing any signs of anything. LOL

But....I have 3 white leghorns that have been squatting for almost 3 weeks. The have HUGE, red wattles and combs floppin' halfway down their faces. No eggs. NONE!

I know they aren't hiding any, b/c they don't free range and I check everywhere, several times a day. WHY, I ask? WHY?!?

They should be laying any day now. Patience...

Good luck.

Here's what you need to do.

Step 1: Get in your car
Step 2: Go to the grocery store
Step 3: Buy a dozen of plain ole white eggs.
Step 4: Come home and put them in the fridge.

The next day you will have an egg.

(think I'm joking? That's exactly what happened with my first girls)

I am soooo with you!!

 

[tuesdays chicks]

I would buy eggs and put a few in the nest box, make sure you mark them though bet you get eggs.

Did you ever hear the phrase "A watched pot never boils"? Sooo goes it with the chicken........

 

[Jen4]

They will lay when they are ready...... wishing you lots of egg soon

(I agree with tuesdays chicks, put some fake eggs in the nest boxes)

Oh, there ARE eggs! Just not from THEM....

I bought 3 laying hens, who lay daily.

But these are my BABIES.....lay some eggs already!
