What breeds and ages. Beautiful eggs. That's about how many eggs I'm currently getting too. Only problem is I have about a 100 chickens.

We have a Barred Rock and an Amberlink, both will be two years old next spring. And we have three Golden Comets that are about eight. months old. The Barred Rock’s eggs (not shown) are very light brown.
