Slacker Chickens!

I've been calling my flock the "Slacker Chickens."  Over two months into this molting business, and we are getting sometimes only 2 or 3 eggs each day.  This is from over 25 hens that should be laying.  I've got ten young pullets (females) growing up and they'll be laying age in mid-Spring.  So by summer, we'll have way more eggs than we need for all our customers.   But for now - we barely have enough for ourselves and our customer who "won" the silent auction at Franklin 4 the Cure for a dozen eggs a week for a year!
