Perhaps someday they will all syncronize and then you'd get 19.

That or buy ALL Black Sex Links. I have one that hasn't missed only 1 day since October 1st.

In good weather, I get the magic 4 of 4 a lot, but here lately it's been more like 3 of 4, and rarely 2 of 4. Me thinks it's the weather.

I really wish I knew if it was the SAME Leghorn missing so many days, or if they are rotating.

The redstar is laying at least 5 eggs a week, usually better than that, and it's easy to tell which eggs she lays.
