Vanessa D Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 New hen laying 2 eggs We have 4 hens about 22 weeks old now and all.are laying, but our Devon blue hen is laying 2 eggs a day, in close succession and some are quite large. I have read that this is possible for new laying hens but I am worried there maybe something amiss with her. She's been laying 2 eggs within about an hour or 2 for about 2 weeks now. Should I be overly concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 That is odd but as she’s only young I wouldn’t be too worried - it can take a while for egg laying to get into a ‘normal’ rhythm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
