We are now up to16 a day from 28 hens/pullets. Good job ladies!!

While several of mine are looking scruffy (silly molting pullets) I still got 10 today! Not wasting time once the solstice hit!

Have you tried sour cream pound cake? It is wonderful for strawberry shortcake and uses 3 eggs if I recall correctly.

My birds amazed me with 9 eggs today! I even got a leghorn egg! Those are all over 6 years old now! I am looking forward to seeing what shade of brown my Blue Copper Marans lay in another 8 weeks or so. They were early or mid September hatches.

I just gathered and there were 7. :yesss:

Having good neighbors is wonderful! 💗

I got just 4 today. 4 of my pullets are molting. 🤔 I have no idea why. They are 10 months old. Welcome winter solstice! May the days be brighter, the hens (and roosters) be healthy and our eggs be plenty! WE MADE IT THROUGH THE SHORTEST DAY!!

We have dropped to 6 eggs a day the last few days. There are 12 pullets, 8 old hens, 6 to young yet at just 14 weeks and 1 cockerel.

We have dropped from 9 to just 7 the last 2 days.

My pullets (and one incredibly stubborn old leghorn) are holding steady at 9 a day.

It varies is the safe answer. Laying after a break starts to pick up here about 2 weeks after winter solstice. That means a long slow gradual crawl out of the egg absence increasing an egg or 2 a week per bird from the best layers until hitting the beginning of March when they are back to full...

Mine are still holding steady at 9-10 a day. I am really glad I added so many this year. Without these young ones I would be getting that single leghorn egg. I hope she doesn't wait for January to molt.

Another 10 here.

Another 10 here. That's out of a current maximum possible 20 laying age birds. The one cockerel and the super old bantam are exempt from egg laying expectations. ;)

I got 10 today. Pretty good with who is in my flock. There are 28 birds. 1 cockerel 11 pullets that are laying 10 are elderly at 6-7 or more years old and molting 6 pullets are to young to lay yet.

My pullets and stubborn elderly California White are holding strong at 9-11 a day. My other old gals are on winter break.

Yesterday was 10. There are a lot of feathers laying around with all the molting going on.

With most/all my older gals molting we are down to 9-10 a day now.

13 again here. That leghorn needs to just stop and molt already! She is 7 years old.

We've been holding it a steady 13. There are 23 birds of laying age. Just 12 of those are pullets. While most of my older birds are molting there are a few holdouts still laying.
