time running out for Gene ?

Recommended Posts

Gene has been with us now for nearly 34 weeks, still no sign of any eggs :roll: , wouldnt be a problem if she wasn't top chook but she has to have sly pecks at the girls at the bottom of the pecking order just as they are walking by,

as i recently lost my Welbar i'm thinking of replacing Gene with 2 egg layers.

i'm going to give her till the end of March i think, if still no eggs thats it, she's out !

My Welsummers hatched at the end of June have only just started laying so it's quite possible that's she's just a late developer. I've also got a CLB who hasn't laid an egg since last September and personally I couldn't rehome her just because she's not laying.

And at the grand old age of 13 months one of mine is about to lay too :D

 

 

there's hope yet then i suppose :pray: although by my deadline of end of March she will be at the very least 13 months old but more likely 15 months old if the age i was told when i bought her is correct.

 

 

why have you a dead line for the laying of eggs?? sorry for a daft question.

 

do you really need to get rid of her?? I'm sure she is just a late bloomer....

as i said, if she was a nice friendly girl i would keep her, but no eggs, not very friendly and a bully too, she's not doing herself any favours i'm afraid,
