We bought our 6 hens from a nearby farm, they were about 23 weeks old when we got them 5 weeks ago. We got two eggs the day after we brought them home, then soon 3 a day, and now most days it has been 4 a day. The eggs have gotten progressively larger too, moving towards large eggs now. Tonight I got home from work and there were four eggs all in one nest box (we have two), and one of them is the size of the first pullet eggs we were getting 5 weeks ago. Do you think maybe there has been one hen that hasn't really been laying all this time, or is it normal that one of the hens laid an egg that small at this point? I thought all of their combs looked red so I thought they were all laying. As you can tell, I'm new to chicken raising
Thanks!
