Title: How Many Eggs in One Day?
Post by: Henlady on July 08, 2010, 21:22
I came home tonight to find 7 eggs in the hen house and I only have 4 ladies.  I know there were none there last night when I put them to bed.  It's not a trick as the same number of eggs are still in the kitchen as were this morning and they are a mixture of different sizes and colours - just like normal.

What is the most anyone has had in a day?

I'd happily swap today - I had just 1 egg from 6 chickens today!!!

Enjoy - they will make a lovely omelette!

We had 4 eggs from 2 hens one day when they were just starting to lay.  Little pullets eggs, but not tiny tiny ones like you sometimes get.  We got 2 the next day too.
