Ok.. So our birds that we purchased in late May from Escondido Feed (near Hoodat) finally started laying eggs last week. We've had about 15 eggs so far from our 4 birds (2 orps, 2 auracana's).. My wife was commenting last week saying that if the birds didn't make any eggs by January they were going to be chicken soup.. I guess they heard her and changed their minds! Anyway, I don't think all 4 are producing quite yet -- most days we get 1-2 eggs, yesterday we got 3 which was a first.
The auracana's (one of them) tends to be a little broody but seems short lived (the broodiness that is).. However, if you put some goodies out that cuts it even shorter!
