AJuff Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Taht white stars and columbines are NOT pure breeds who stop laying in the winter!!! A case of mistaken identity in my cube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Oh dear....... and yet my Pure Breed CLB IS laying (Although some of mine aren't either, decided that the coldest time of the year is best to either be broody or have a moult ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricia W Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 9 chickens = no eggs..... 1 x cockerel, 2 having a rest, 6 not started yet. I'm hoping to be inundated from February onwards - part from Phillip who I hope will be doing the manly thing! So I sneak into Waitrose and buy eggs when no one is looking....

Valkyrie Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Tipsy in the nest box at the moment, Squirt laying for England, one old lady trying not to let the young whippersnapper beat her and one old lady who's probably too fat.

skye Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 8 chickens - 4 laying, 1 recovering from moult, 1 too young, 2 resting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 (edited) 7 ex bats = 7 eggs/day last few days! Full house! (Have been having 5 or 6 a day for few weeks, but very surprised at 7 as Amy does not have a red face. We can't tell if she crouches as she won't come near us, I think she must be bottom chook.)
