jsm25 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 I have two chickens (Gingernut Ranger type) which are about 2 years and 3 months old and looking in very good condition. Over the winter we saw a reduction in eggs but now the spring has come we have not see much improvement with only one egg ever other day . Is this because of their age or should we be expecting more and if so that can we do about it. Any help would be appreciated John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Have they been wormed recently? Sometimes a reduction in egg production can be down to that - though one egg every other day isn't too bad for a 2 and a bit year old hen.

Saronne Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 ....or was that one egg every other day between two chickens? Saronne x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsm25 Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 Yes its one egg every other day from the two chickens, we think it may be one chicken which is laying. Some of the eggs are very thin and the chicken eat them as well. JOHN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
