ladyjulian Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 If a ladyjulian keeps four chickens, and all four have laid an egg each morning for the last few days, how did those four chooks produce five eggs this morning? Please show your working and put your answer neatly at the bottom of the sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I've never been that good at maths, I may have to come back to you on that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyjulian Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 The only explanation is that they've had a wild party last night and invited one of next door's chickens over. Seriously, I'm flummoxed. I know they laid one each yesterday morning, so it wasn't one laid yesterday and another today. I suppose they do say hybrids are productive!

ladyjulian Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 Another five today! The only thing I can think of is that they're largely confined to barracks at the moment (until the veg plants are big enough to look after themselves) and might be eating more pellets. I've increased their cabbage ration... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Are you getting them at different times of the day? Deardree used to lay one in the morning, then one the following night.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
