Phosphorus Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Does this vary? Some people seem to post that their hen started to lay and then has laid pretty much every day since Alice my White Star laid a lovely 53g egg about a week ago and there has been nothing since Is this quite common? I wasn't too worried as when Roast started laying we had a gap of 4 days before the 2nd egg - but this seems to be going on and on Edited to say that otherwise she is fine and no visits to the nest box so I don't think she is egg bound - just isn't feeling the inclination?

Phosphorus Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 She has just laid a softie - in the nesting box as well So laying tackle is getting sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phosphorus Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 And the rest hopefully. Gemma has been crouching for a good few days and so did Jerry (soon to be renamed Ginger Gerry ) yesterday. Need a four egg day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same again then two eggs in two days THEN...another the day after tomorrow Her egg production goes up and down like a yo-yo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbey Road Girl Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I think they are autodidacts--they make their own rules! It's only us sillies who try to figure them out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Sorry to ask a question on this thread but when they do this crouching is it normal that they do a little tap dance as well? Butch has been doing this for about a week now. Is this normal??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
