counturchickens Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 We thought 3 of our 4 girls had given up, with only CJ laying an egg every other day and the occasional softie from Ainsley, however 2 eggs Christmas day, and 2 boxing day! Not bad for ex batts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I know the feeling, after getting 2-3 eggs max a day and starting to stock pile I've had LOADS the last few days, averaging about 8-12 a day now what to do with them all, as im not in works to sell them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
counturchickens Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 I've seen a few posts about hens coming back into lay. We had another suprise yesterday as we think we had one from our oldest girl Dora who hasn't laid for months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 my barnbar starfish laid her first egg since summer today so that confirms it the days are getting longer p.s. I bet she doesn't lay again for weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
