TonyJolly Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 We have two light sussex sisters, which are now 8 months old. Penny is larger and lays about 5 eggs a week. Henny was ill earlier in the year having Pastereulla and Corynebacterium (sp?) mycoplasma type symptoms. She still has never laid. We now have two additional chucks from Omlet a gingernut ranger and pepperpot. The GR is laying consistently and the Pepperpot has just started and they are only 22-24 weeks old. My question is will Henny ever lay, can they be very late developers, or is it possible that the illness affected her development to an extent where she won't ever lay. Just interested to know really, doesn't really change anything I guess, other than potential egg count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
