Thanks! She is from Cackle hatchery. What they call a "Partridge" Olive Egger. Half Welsummer, half Crested Cream Legbar. Hoping for some green eggs with speckles. I guess I will find out soon!

if you really don't want to wait much longer, you could try adding a little sugar to her mash. Usually this will help to get them started.

Thanks! No, it’s fine she just looks like she’s ready to burst any minute!

Yes, she does! Just as mine do now at 21 weeks of age. They rake the nest boxes daily, but still no eggs!
