Look at mamma hiding those eggs from the big bad thunderstorm. I found a leak in the coop so I rushed to TSC to get a tarp and fresh bedding... She's all happy again.. Added the little feeder and waterer today as well...

7 out of 8. The broody hen is not laying.

Today I got 8 eggs from 6 hens. Well, and 3 pullets that weren't laying yet, that I was aware of.

One of the eggs was a tiny pullet egg. But if any of my other pullets laid an egg for the first time today, it's as large as any of my 1+ year old and 2 year old hens' eggs.

Could a hen lay one egg after 9pm (when I checked at lockup) and then a second egg before 6:45 pm the following day? (When I found the 8th egg.) That's almost 22 hours apart. That's possible, right?

Because I don't see how a pullet can lay a giant egg for her first one. Unless she's been practicing longer than I realized. But I never did see any tiny one until today.

1 egg. Only 1 egg from 6 hens... 1 just one...

I think they are holding out on me. Next thing I know they are going to find a type writer, and I will be getting messages demanding heated blankets.
