Interesting coincidence in daily egg counts - this Tuesday - Thursday had the same saliy production as the same days the previous week.

another cell video of scratching hens. There's a little pecking order ruckus in this one - about 11 seconds in a silver laced wyandotte lets a juvie barred rock know she should get away from her. A different barred rock gets scolded by a rhode island red in the background a bit later.

It is pretty clear that several hens have had production fall off. Egg counts are consistent with all young hens laying and possibly an older hen or two in sporadic production. The drop in production came about 2 days into this rainy period, there's a correlation, not sure about causation.

Americauna hasn't laid an egg in the past week, although it is possible she's hiding eggs.

It has been raining steadily for about 5 days. This seems to have cut production somewhat - no green eggs (that I've found) for 4 days!

Looks fairly consistent 12+ eggs over each three day period in the past week. Low of 3 brown eggs, no green. High of 5 brown, 1 green.

and 27-30 eggs per week over the same period. 24 brown eggs/8 hens - three brown eggs per hen per week. one egg every other day per hen. Peak production is on the order of
one egg per hen every 36 hours... this is 75% of peak production.

3 brown + 1 brown cannibalized.

26 brown, 4 green Wednesday - Tuesday.

cannibalized egg was laid by the escapee RI Red. it had been pecked a little, mostly intact. Not sure if she's cannibalized her own egg or some other animal did, possible a Stellar jay or a rat got at the egg.
