Got my 4 girls on 8th October approx 15 weeks old. First egg on 11th November, now had 6, 4 from 1 and 2 from another. They are delicious and have all been perfeclty formed though none huge as yet. Feeding layers pellets with corn treats in the afternoon, chickweed from the allotment and they are now on their third pumpkin in as many weeks. I put half a teaspoon of Orego-Stim in their water every day.
Always look ahead, there are no regrets in that direction

What sort of hens are they?  Hybrids usually lay earlier than pure breeds

There was an almighty racket from the Sussex house yesterday and when I checked I found a smaller than usual unfamiliar looking egg  :D so maybe, just maybe it can be attributed to Mrs White, who is 19 weeks old  :happy:
