Chili Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 My columbine is the most lovely hen but we only seem to get one or two eggs a week All my other girls lay a lot more frequently (well except for Mrs Broody Trousers anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Mine does quite well, lays for 5 or 6 days then a day off. Eggsare getting bigger as well - up to 60g average now! Far better layer than the araucana and the araucana hybrid i have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 My two are top notch layers, we went through a little spell last month of a few soft eggs when I changed their food, but overall, they both lay most days with maybe one or two days off per month. They're still on the small side though, 46-51g. I wonder why yours is so sporadic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Two days on, one day off, two days on, one day off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moochoo Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Doris lays nearly every day but Daisy only manages about once or twice a week. Doris' eggs are tiny compared to Daisy's though, I guess Daisy's into quality not quantity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Maisie's my best layer. She's only had 7 days off since January (plus 3 softies). Consistently big eggs too, averaging 68g. (Sometimes an odd shape though, torpedo or wrinkled.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
