Sex-Links = short life span

[Mrs. K]

Not much longer. I like having a couple in the flock, they do lay great.

When having a flock, I think it is important to consider having a multi-generational flock, some old, some young and some new. You don't keep individual chickens, keep a flock where birds come and go.

I did purchase some chicks this spring, some ameraucanas, EE's and 3 cream legbars, none are laying yet. The EEs are 22 weeks old now so hopefully will start soon, the others are a month or more younger. I'm hoping by fall my egg production is back up! Thanks for your reply!!
