Just thought I would ask this question. One of our hens the oldest and largest bye the way has laid a couple of eggs back in July shortly after arriving here. The eggs was small and after she layed a sausage shaped shell'less one. Since then she has never laid since. All our others are laying except the two yongest girls. Who are thinking about it now especialy Daisy the Leghorn. When we got Margery the Sussex
along with her four sisters/companions she was just growing her comb and wattles, the other four had none at the time. After a while the others matured and started to lay their wind eggs which are now getting bigger one girl is laying full sized eggs now. We collected the girls on July 10th 2009. Since the end of July Marg has not layed since. Our oldest girls have all been laying since August.
Our girls are fed on layers pellets from a feeder, corn only as a treat now and then. They have been wormed and have no mites and are not moulty either. Also they cannot lay their eggs anywhere where we would not find them. Marg is the top dog she is very greedy and the largest girl we have. Any ideas?
