Olive Egger Contest! - Ended

[LadiesAndJane]

I have a little Silverudds Blue/EE cross that has been doing that! She laid her first egg two weeks ago and has not laid one since! She goes to the nest box and sits there for a while and and then nothing. I gave her a couple of extra doses of calcium thinking she may have needed this but she seems fine, she’s eating and drinking and acting normal. No sign of being egg bound. I guess things will happen when they happen!

So true! There is no need to rush them.

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!

I have a couple pullet Mars Bars. CCL crossed with Wheaten Marans. I can’t wait to see their eggs.

WINNERS!!!

#1 @MountainWoman73 with Olive!

This one's name is Olive, and this is her first egg. Approximately 6 months old.

#2 @Auntiejessi3 with Prue!

Prue-marans mix 6 months old(she's a nut)

#3 @Iluveggers with unnamed!

Here is my other Olive Egger. She’s from TSC so no idea on cross. I love her little floofy feathers on her head! Thinking she must be mixed with Legbar maybe because of it? Only 8 weeks old.

Thanks! But they are not my eggs!
