Daphne Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Just felt the need to say that one of my LF orps laid today. They have never laid this early in the year before. This means in theory I could get a very decent growing season into any I decide to hatch Just need to catch the cockeral in the act now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkor Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 GO MRS ORP!!!! My buff has laid all winter but then she was a late baby and this was her first laying season. Gin one of my 2008 Orps started last week too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Not an Orp, but Peri my Barnebar has started crouching again, so she should start laying again soon after her winter break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
