This is probably silly question #100 from me and I appreciate your indulging me. I don't get to spend the week days with the chickens so I scrutinize them on the weekends. My BIGS or at least the 3 best most consistent layers have developed a new twist...they are taking FOREVER in the nest box like hours..YES hours ..is that normal? They will be a year old September 10th and are extremely good laying birds and 1 of the 3 is the head hen the 2nd is a never miss a day girl and the 3rd is my broken chicken...broody comes and goes then lays like a machine then takes her sweet time laying..uou get the picture. Is all this normal the extended time laying...we are calling it "Chicken Spa Time"
