counturchickens Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 My 2 columbines haven't started laying yet, however one of them did the crouch on Saturday! How long is it between starting crouching and laying? I would love a blue egg for Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
