batcatz Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi, my speckedly has laid an egg everyday until Sunday. Her comb is red, she looks happy and lively. I checked there were no mites last night by shining a torch into the house while they were roosting and all is okay. She is not moulting. Is this normal? I am wondering if I am being punished for being on holiday for 2 weeks. The person who looked after them had an egg every day until Saturday. I got back from holiday on Sunday. haha Amanda getting desperate for an Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Have you wormed her recently (verm-x doesn't count)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batcatz Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi, she was wormed when I bought her at beginning of Aug. I did add Verm-x to the pellets 2 weeks ago. I guess I should worm her soon? Today I put an old egg in the nestbox and added ACV to the water and lo and behold there was a smallish egg in the nestbox when I got home just now.

Chucky Mama Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I think that worming with FLubenvet would be a good idea, If the people that you got them from also used Verm-x it will mean that they haven't been wormed for some time.
