Whats the record for consecutive days laying from 1 hen?

[Chicks_N_Horses]

I don't know, I have never kept track. I have a BO hen that lays faithfully every single day though. I don't remember her not laying one....so....

I know my broody has sat on her nest for a total 82 days in a row!!

My 2 White Leghorn girls are on days 21 and 22 for them. One started laying August 12 and has not missed a single day. She lays large to XL eggs already also. And I have 8 in the incubator and ALL are fertile. She is awesome.

My other White Leghorn started August 1st, skipped August 2nd and laid every other single day of August other than August 12th. 29 eggs in 31 days.

These White Leghorns really are laying machines. (and incredible foragers, surprisingly).

Post #10 is right. McMurray Hatchery even advertises it in their catalog as the record holder.

Also, I keep track with an excel spreadsheet. I'm sure it will get harder as I have more layers, but so far I can tell the 5 eggs apart. One XL white (Tweedle Dum), one L white (Tweedle Dee), one S white(Princess Buttercup), 1 brown in the top boxes (Stew), 1 brown in the bottom boxes (Giant Girl). I am a huge nerd and keep track in a spreadsheet.

Our 4 girls have been laying everyday since 2 months ago. Couple of em have missed a couple days in between, but there is a couple that haven't missed a beat. Of course, they haven't went thru their first adult molt.
