How long before barnevelder hens start to lay eggs?
Barnevelder hens typically start laying eggs around 18-24 weeks of age.
However, there can be some variation depending on a few factors:
* Breed: Some Barnevelder lines mature a bit faster than others.
* Individual Hen: Just like people, some hens mature a little earlier or later than others.
* Environment: Factors like diet, temperature, and light exposure can affect egg production.
To encourage egg laying:
* Provide a good diet: Feed your Barnevelder hens a high-quality feed formulated for laying hens.
* Offer plenty of light: A longer daylight cycle can stimulate egg production.
* Keep them warm: Hens need a comfortable temperature to lay eggs.
* Ensure adequate space: Overcrowding can stress hens and reduce egg laying.
Don't worry if your hens don't start laying immediately after 18 weeks. It's perfectly normal for them to take a little longer. Just make sure they have the right conditions and they will eventually start laying those beautiful brown eggs!
