The drought is over!!!!

Finally, after 10 weeks with not a single egg due to the girls molting, I have eggs again!!! Woo-hoo!

No, none laid a golf ball. That was for the 2 pullets to figure out where to lay when the time finally comes, especially if no hens were laying and the newbies didn't quite figure it out yet. But I guess all the other hens decided that the nest with the golf ball was the "right" one! Now for the pullets to start laying. Theirs should be blue eggs!

Such pretty eggs! Ten weeks is a long time to go without any eggs -- "time to buy eggs at the store," long time. It is so weird, doing that... Anyway, it's good to hear that they're laying again.
By the way, what kind of pullets do you have? There are a few breeds that lay blue eggs, so what kind are they?

Congratulations!

Congrats! You've got some pretty eggs there. How many hens do you have?

How many hens do you have?

Nine hens (some are 2-1/2, some 1-1/2 years old) and two 6-month old pullets.

Yay!! It's always so cool to get eggs after they finally get done molting!!

Woo-hoo!

IKR!?!?!?!

Mine started back up last week after a month with no eggs.

A month. That's not bad vs. my two-and-a-half month wait. Hoping more of mine get restarted soon.

Well, the month or so before that only one hen was laying...then she finally molted.
