(Above) Barred Rock Pullets 12 weeks old eating snow!

More baby chicks are coming!

We have 225 hundred pullets (young hens) that will start to lay eggs in April. 100 Production Reds, 50 Buff Orpingtons, 50 Barred Rocks, and 25 americans. (lay green, blue, or pink colored eggs) 100 more Production Reds are coming January 26 and they will start laying in July. When everyone gets really into laying, we should have 600 layers. Whew, that is a lot of eggs to wash, grade, and label the cartons! All this will take about 3-4 hours per day.

It's a good thing that we like our laying hens!
