Egging 2 for 4...

Well...our average is going up...yeah!!!! Jan got another egg today (the non-cracked type...whew)!!! Thanks to all of your feedback, I have taken your advice and increased their oyster shell supplement so hopefully that will help out...

Here are some pics I hope you enjoy!!!

  2. Our old hens lay a cracked egg now and again, but not so much after we started mixing some layer feed in with their corn. The oyster shell is a good supplement as well. Putting a little extra straw/grass/hay in their laying boxes also helps to cushion the "blow" and minimize breakage. Looks like you are off to a good start. Love the pics -- your kids are gorgeous. :)
