We have 4 laying hens 2 years old. The last month or so, maybe a little less we’ve been getting 0-1 eggs per day with occasional eggs remainders in the nesting box. I’m sure some of them have been eaten, hoping it’s only been ones that already had damage. We have 4 newer chickens 1 roo and 3 pullets 20 weeks old living with them. Wondering what might be causing the lack of laying and if you think the newer chickens would be eating the eggs? Recently we bought some ceramic eggs to try and deter from eating but still have had some issues with egg remincse in the box.
Also we just found a egg in the run which is a darker egg and slightly smaller, wondering if one of the hens just started laying again and if it’s normal for the first egg after a pause to be different. We have a SLW new one but don’t think she’s laying yet.
Thanks sorry for the confusing post.
