Hit 12 eggs from my 6 hens last week and I'm still not convinced it's good
Everyone talks about getting more eggs like it's the ultimate goal, but when I collected 12 in one day from my 6 hens last Tuesday I freaked out a little. My barred rock, Mabel, was laying almost one every 24 hours and I worried she was overworked or stressed. I checked her for mites, adjusted their feed to add more calcium, and even skipped giving them treats for two days. Turns out she's just a beast of a layer now that she's a year old, but I'm still paranoid something's off. Has anyone else had a hen hit a weird high count and then crash hard?
