8/14 today, thats about average for the last couple of weeks. I sure my 3 Red Comets(3 yrs old) have quit laying, followed by strong suspicions of my 2 Cuckoo Marans and 2 Silver Wyandottes(2 yrs old). They are my first candidates for this years freezer camp! Depending on how many of my new...

6 out of 14 layers still waiting on the last baby (EE) to start laying, still praying it will be a blue egg! Molting has started! My best friend came out to help me with the fall coop clean out and repair day. It looked like a pillow fight had broken out! The good news is we found lots of...

Well after a long absence I'm going to try to get back in the groove! 8/15 from my older girls and in the last week I have a consistent new layer 6 days out of 7! So 1/2 from the babies. Hoping the new layer is my buff, eggs started out cream colored and everyday have gotten a shade darker...

This is when I have a heart to heart with my girls about paying rent and give them options.... Crockpot, grill or rotesserrie oven. Seems to work like a charm! lol

My girls are loving this Spring weather! For the last two weeks we've been getting 9 - 13 a day! That's out of 13 girls! Apparently they didn't get the memo about %50 to %75 is considered a good day! Not going to complain!

Congrats!!!

Averaging 9/13 for the last week!Considering the crazy weather we've been having, I'll take it! My girls kindly request snorkels and swim fins! or better yet some good old fashioned sunshine!

5/13 today....but that's not the good part! When I got home my husband had a surprise for me, he made me close my eyes until he put the egg basket in my hands and then backed away so he could take pictures! Yeah! One of my EE's layed an egg! FINALLY! She laid it literally in the middle of the...

Waded out to the coop this morning to give the girls their salad bowl. Found three eggs! And one of the them is small and dark! Obviously not a red comet, now who is it? Here's a picture of my egg haul for the last 4 days, you can just barely see the pencil dates I put on the eggs when I bring...

for the last two weeks we been getting 2 to 3 a day from 13 hens. The four one year old red comets have been molting FOREVER it seems like , based on the size of the eggs we're getting 1 a day from them. We've been getting random much smaller eggs of new and different shades of brown so my new...

4/13 pretty sure it's 2 red comets and 2 buffs, let them free range today in the gorgeous sunshine so hopefully all that vitamin D will help encourage the others to start laying! Not that I'm impatient
