Our girls eggs dried up at the end of November and we have had to resort to S*%e!+a^ket eggs :-[, well this morning did the usual feed count and cuss and lo and behold over half of them have started to lay again :thumbsup: :thumbsup: bless 'em. And the oven ready look is going out of fashion as well
I have missed a decent egg in the morning.
This is the best bit of news I've had in months , now I have to decide, boil,poach,scramble of fry ?
Silly how something so simple can give you a boost .
Now what to do with the supermarket ones.....
-
They're probably responding to the increase in daylight hours - presumably over a year old or they'd likely lay through their first Winter.

mine have started to lay as well didn't have to resort to buying but it was close. lucky I have a mixed bag of ages so some laid over the winter. you could feed the supermarket eggs to your chucks the will love them.
