Two of our chooks are laying well now but the third has not done the biz yet
she seems happy and healthy, but its been a few weeks now and I was hoping that the other two's eggs would encourage her but to no avail . Any ideas ????

p54jes.

There was about 5 weeks gap between our first hen laying until the fifth layed. How old are your hens?
