Debra Sprague Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Do all chickens lay their eggs at the same time of day? Answer the one-question poll to find out, Debra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Mine lay at different times throughout the day, from 7am through till 3pmish. Major feat of ingenuity achieved this am. I startled Tikka in the nesting box first thing today, and she scarpered and laid her egg in the run. With my long handled serving spoon I picked it up through the side of the run, and passed it along until I could reach it. It took several passes before it was accessible. I managed to get mud all over my pyjamas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Chickens often lay in a 25 hour cycle (strange creatures) and lay at different times of the day, getting later and later, maybe stopping, then starting early the next time. I'm sure Beth used to always lay an egg at around 7.30 in the morning though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
