Kylie1007 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 When do chickens start laying eggs again after coming out of a broody period? My silkie, who was broody for just a little over a week, was a lovely little layer until last week - just wondering if she should start laying immediately or if it takes a while to get back on track!

gongladosh Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 when mine comes out of broodiness, it's about 3 to 5 days later that we start getting eggs again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffy chick Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 yep definately! I've been buying eggs for 2 weeks! It looks like the silkies are both going through a mini moult too. Brill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
