Mel (& Paul) Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Ok, our girls have never been affected by thunder / fireworks / dogs barking etc., but a colleague has a claim where it is alleged that a rally has affected a farm's egg production. I think I recall some people here having egg-less days after noise but only one day? Am I right? Melx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 My sisters mother in law lives just outside Beirut. Whenever there is shelling( sorry...couldn't think of a better word...) her flock stops laying for a couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Thanks. They never see any trouble. It is all confined to small areas in the city, and a bit on the border apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Any upset to ours only seems to disrupt their laying for a day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
