My Midget Whites just started to lay too. Two hens-four eggs so far.

My Narragansett's laid their first this morning. Only have two hens so I am hoping to increase my flock up to five or six hens.

I haven't had turkeys many years. Are they starting to lay later than usual? Mine have laid six eggs so far (I too, have just two hens); it just seems they've always started sooner in past years.

Mine were later last year if memory serves me right.

I haven't gotten any from the two Blue Slate hens I picked up two weekends ago.

My blues have't started laying yet. Only one from the palm, and yesterday the first one from the Narragansett. Only steady layer I have now is the red.
