3 weeks ago I got 5 hen and 1 Roo (all bantams) to help "rebuild" my flock of 2 older hens. The two older hens stopped laying eggs around May of 2013. The new chickens are older as well and do not lay except for one. I know her eggs because she is a bantam and her eggs are "diet" sized as my husband says. Well, last night my husband said he collected eggs out the coop. I was like okay good... but he then showed me the eggs and we have BIG regular eggs. So my question is whos eggs are these? Could my big chickens start to lay again? Why did they stop? Did the Roo get them going again? (I know you dont have to have a Roo for eggs) I also got 5 4 week old chick. Although they are in a brooder where the other chickens visit them, did they have anything to do with this? Or should I check my corn for crop circles?? HeHe
