beach chick Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I'm probably being silly here, but having got used to the luxury of 2 eggs a day for at least the last fortnight, we've only got 1 today... is it just a question of the chook's body 'catching up' with itself, or should I worry? the 1 egg we had today is 50g, so I don't know if its a small one from Tara, or one of Paris's getting bigger... any advice gratefully accepted! thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah 2 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 umm. I think it's normal. Mine have only been laying for 3 days and one of them has already decided it needs a day off. I'm sure there will be plenty of people with advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura & CTB Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Normal - my two usually have one day off a week each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach chick Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 oh well, I guess she deserves a rest then! but who's is the egg we got today - are Paris's getting bigger coz she's into her stride, or Tara's smaller becoz she fancies a day off?!

Hen Watch Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I mostly get 3 a day as 3 are laying, but every now and then I only get 2. Don't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 very laid back house here....we had no eggs today (I think the chickens were disgusted with us cos we went to Perranporth for the day ). Somedays we get 3 eggs from 2 hens and other days they alternate and lay one each day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach chick Posted June 30, 2007 Author Share Posted June 30, 2007 back to 2 again today! and just realised that it's only been a week since we started getting 2 a day - how quickly you get used to it!! now just got to get those Sussexes into the act...
