Thank you for writing this up and providing diagrams! I have 2 Barred Rock pullets I can barely tell apart, but only one barred rock egg has been getting laid. I can never seem to catch the one who is laying, so this is very helpful. I'll check them this evening to see which one it is!
Excellent info. I'm bookmarking this for the next time someone says they don't know who is or isn't laying. Me personally, I have silkies so don't care who isn't laying, just grateful for who is!
Thank you
Everything explained very well makes it easy to follow the directions and understand what you’re looking for or not looking for . Very much appreciated.
Excellent article! For years I've checked the pelvic points on my hen to determine if they were laying or how close to laying they were. There was some other methods of telling in this article that I found quite interesting. This article was an overall good read and informational.
Nicely illustrated with great laymen (haha) style write up. Great for a newbie chicken chick like me.
I would like to know from where the skeletal illustration can be found. I am curious to know the other structure labels.
Very helpful! When you have several pullets the same age it’s hard to tell who’s doing what. This is one reason I have a flock of mixed breeds laying various colored eggs. That limits the variables!
