But I'm not sure if I've got enough chickens Perhaps I should go to that shop Summayah goes to, and maybe someone will put a couple more in my run by the time I get home Back to top George Joined: 14 Apr 2005 Posts: 5661 Location: London Posted: Thu Oct 27, 2005 8:04 am    Post subject: I'm getting 1 egg a day from 4, Back to top Knobby Joined: 13 Apr 2005 Posts: 6707 Location: North Warwickshire Posted: Thu Oct 27, 2005 8:25 am    Post subject: Usually 4 eggs out of 12 chooks, 3 are boys tho' and one Hen STILL hasnt started laying Grrrr Back to top Heather Moderator Joined: 22 Apr 2005 Posts: 3997 Location: West Sussex Posted: Thu Oct 27, 2005 8:36 am    Post subject: George wrote: I'm getting 1 egg a day from 4, Snap ! and the Orps don't show any signs of starting knobby wrote: Usually 4 eggs out of 12 chooks, 3 are boys tho' and one Hen STILL hasnt started laying Grrrr It's a bit much expecting the boys to lay though Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         The Poultry Keeper Forum Index -> General & Misc All times are GMT + 1 Hour Goto page Previous  1, 2, 3  Next Page 2 of 3 Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2005 phpBB Group
