Hi,
I should probably start off by saying we have 10 hens and 1 rooster. They are all Sexlinks right at a year old now. Our hens are laying a lot now with longer days and warmer weather. A couple of them seem broody and it would be cool to have a spring chick or even a few. The picture is, I think, 3 days worth of eggs. I know for sure that I have to start gathering eggs daily now. I need some advice on how I should gather eggs and leave eggs. There has to be some kind of strategy, right? I saw one post that suggested marking eggs to leave. That makes sense to me, please expand. Please share your wisdom with me.
Thanks!!
