Christian Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 2 of mine laid in the first week or so, but Shirley waited 3 months! She was definately much younger than the other two though. Congratulations on your new girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovemychooks Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Well i've had my "chicks" since the day they were born and they are 24 weeks old today and still nothing, not an egg in sight. I've got 2 Welsummers, 1 Light Sussex and 2 Maran and no eggs from any of them ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
