Anyone have Wyandottes? Generally, how old are they when they begin to lay? These ladies are five months old and not even an indication . . . .

Not me........

I moved this gal from the show cage to the cull pen. I decided to take a picture of her comb...
I did not like what the picture showed...I must be getting old if the picture is better for me than looking at the comb....

Ugly rose combs that look like cushion combs with a bad spike.. I hope whomever took my birds in July is doing better with them than I am with these culls...

I don't know if anyone is looking for an incubator, but the Duluth Craigslist recently had a listing for a Redwood Lehy I think ?

I use fake eggs (golf balls) Some will use them, some will kick them out. Give them time they will find the nests if they are locked into a run. I would not free range while they are learning to lay or you may never find the eggs.

As far as nesting material, they are forever throwing it out. I am thinking of getting those fake straw pads to put in there. The washable ones....The only hitch there was Judy. She says I can't wash them in the washing machine......When I said I could use the dishwasher she went full on crazy... I will never understand women...

see this is why I creep on your thread. This made me laugh out loud
Poor saint Judy

HUH? What was funny in that? I found her attitude sad and demeaning to me and my hens!
