How many times a day do you check for eggs?
I ask this because a woman at work said it was unusual that my chickens don’t lay their eggs all in the morning like hers do. I thought her comment was weird, it’s not like you can train chickens to lay at certain times.
I go out to check for eggs about 2-3 times a day, because it’s winter so any egg left behind could freeze over night. (And I’ve eaten the frozen eggs once they thaw but they’re not good, and typically I don’t save them). So that’s why I’m checking the coop more than once so I can get to the eggs while their still good.
Also this photo is how many eggs I get each day. The ones in the cartoon are from the morning and the washed ones are from this afternoon.
