I think my buckeyes don't lay very large eggs at all, I need to weight of course, when they begin to lay again, but I don't think they are gonna come out as big eggs... have a wonderful day, CynthiaM.
No smacking for exploring YOUR options to achieve YOUR objectives. We answer to no one about what we choose to do with our poultry...but honesty and integrity, if you want to play in certain circles, you then must follow and abide by their rules if you want to comply.

Yes, Cindi's hatchery Buff Orpintions of three years old, lay the biggest eggs for her...good for them! We have been often told that the hen is suppose to only last one year and the decline in number of eggs makes her not worth keeping from one year onwards...obviously Cindi gets the nice benefit of caring well for her hatchery Orps and they are paying her back in the nicest of ways, with BIG eggers!
