Mum Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I have a one year old Silkie and one year old Pekin who lay regularly (and I thank them each and every time they do). I have a 21wk old orpington plus 7 other "youngsters" (various breeds) who range between 16 & 20wks ... so, anytime now for eggs? Feels like I have been waiting for sooooooooo long (hatched one of the youngsters!). Was told an orpington can reach POL at 30wks!!! What is the shortest time your girls presented eggs? What is the longest time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I have a cream legbar, I only got her for the blue eggs but she doesn't know what an egg is. she is about 18 months now so I've given up hope. She#s looks good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
