1 brown (1S)

I reviewed production from 2008, specifically when the new pullets came into production - looks like they came on about 6 months after hatching. So barring photocycle effects should be 9 pullets laying small eggs - 6 brown, 3 green. Not there yet.

Well I called it yesterday, some of the June cohort is laying.

Just about 6 months after chicks hatched they started laying, even with the low photo cycle.

I think some of the June cohort are laying.
