Since moving to a smallholding in March, and joining this great forum I've added 20 hybrid POL and 3 GOS weaners to the gang.
Got loads of great info from previous posts on the forum, so haven't had to ask any questions...until now! I hope you may be able to help.
I got the 20 POL on 11th April, all hybrids of different sorts. They have settled in really well and the egg numbers have gradually increased to an average of 16 a day....the most being 19!!
Anyway, one of the speckledys has been spending a lot of time in the boxes over the last few days. She was one of the first to start laying and she definitely laid an egg yesterday, not sure about today.
She looks bright and 'with it', her comb looks good and is red. I've been lifting her out and she is drinking, eating and pooing well, but she heads straight back to the boxes again.
I would appreciate your advice on whether anything is wrong.....and what should I do? Is she too young to be broody?
