surf_space Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 My little hens who haven't laid eggs all winter, have decided its time to start laying again! They picked a funny time in this weather! we've had an egg every day for the past 3 days! Just wondering how they manage to produce them, they haven't even been outside the coop for more than 20 minutes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 yup - four eggs here today, which is the first time in a LONG long time! i knew I had four hens laying, due to the shape/colour of the eggs, but they haven't all co-ordinated themselves for months!

Snowbell is a white hybrid that lays lovely large white eggs, they are quite small compared to the oither hybrids I have had, the two I have are quite nervous birds and do not like human contact I love their eggs though.
