Sooo much pooping

[MaryHen]

Well as predicted all my 2 chucks that hadn't started laying, started when I was on holiday!!

Anyway, my Hubbie bless him studied thee laying behaviour for me and figured out which eggs where layed by which chicken.

However, today, when I got back there where some strange eggs.

Below is a picture of the eggs split into who we think layed the ;

 

 

The most puzzling is the box on the left layed by Amber (we think!); can eggs from the same hen vary so much in colour?

 

There was a soft shell egg in the coup rather than nest box but I think this is probably normal for the beginning of laying.

Wow, that's a nice yield in eggs! Good job chickens!

 

Mine lay quite different sized eggs, but all are more or less the same colour... Don't know if this is normal.

I can usually tell who lays which egg by a combination of shape, size and colour, but not always. These is also a fair variation in colour - the brown eggs have become light over time. We can get a good deep brown from Coco but mostly lighter brown.

Any eggs would be nice

And I really wouldn't mind what colour or size

Glad you have lots of eggs from your girls though

I have had chooks that lay a variation of colours. It can take a little while for them to settle down.
