Who else is waiting the impossible wait?

I think I might of put the nesting boxes in too quickly.. now they are perching and pooping in them.. and NO EGGS!!! For a month they haven't gone near them.. now all of a sudden they want to perch up there and poop... Oh well... have to think of something quick.

I have 3 to 4 more weeks to go but I still look every morning and afternoon. I think my BR or Plyrk will lay first from the red they are developing

What is the hint that they have been checking them out? Mine are in a tractor still and the nests are out in the open and they will sit in them or maybe roost on the edge. What did you notice, or can you see the girls actually looking them over?

Whoopi laid an egg!~!~!

This is my second first egg!!!! WhooHooo!!!!

As of today my wait is over!! TWO eggs AT ONCE laid by my EE! She is 20 weeks old. 2 more hens to go...

Can a chicken really lay two eggs at once?​

That would be a YES>....read my post! I didn't think it was possible either but I have been watching them like hawks and trust me I did NOT miss anything! I have them indoors so it's hard to miss anything that goes on.

How do you know which chicken laid the egg

She was the only one in the nest box. I went in when she came out (yes, I'm a chicken stalker

)
