Plum Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Well 3 chickens and 3 eggs every day for 13 days in a row. I keep telling them to take a break. And what was odd, yesterday Sparrow laid in the afternoon and this morning I'm not whipping them honest. I thought they were supposed to take a break every week. So what is the record?

Chickvic Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 The longest I've had is Ruby - she laid 50 days without a break I always thought they'd have a day off every week or 10 days. Edited to add - I've just checked the chart and Opal has done 51 days, if she lays today that will be 52 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Some of them will go for months without a day off. But especially at this time of year. Egg production peaks around March/April, then eases off a bit into summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
