    Can you image being a hen laying her first egg for the first time must be more confusing and puzzling to a chicken than a little girl getting her period for the first time and not knowing why. Only more painful and frightening. lol All those gals were telling her words of encouragement. Bravo to the gals who recorded this. Great job Vela Homestead 😊👏👏👏🤘

      I thought they had tea time and all them old birds tell them young birds like, "Just wait til u start pooping out golf balls for the tall ones just to come in here and take them!! We just want to take a break!!!!" Amen, couldn’t have said that any better! Chicken traumatized!

    It would be great for odor and for the girls if you have an eight inch layer of straw on the floor of the coop. You can put it in your compost when it's time to change it. Or as mulch in your garden. It helps keep them warm in winter as well. So glad your are providing awe for your family as well as a connection to the food on their table. So many lacking knowledge that everything we eat is a sacrifice which should never be wasted nor taken for granted.

      Are they a fancy breed? Fancy breeds start laying later than breeds that specialize in egg laying. Are you sure they're hens?

    • @TIOCI_0
      @TIOCI_0 3 года назад

      Also depends on amount of sunlight. For example, if they’re born in summer or fall in Northern Hemisphere then they may be significantly delayed during winter months when they’d reach maturity. They need about 12-14 hrs of daylight. You may be able to “assist” them by adding proper lighting to your coop/run area if it is is too dark & cold. (Best to turn on any artificial lighting in early am so not to mess with their internal clocks too much).

    • @laurenjoers4949
      @laurenjoers4949 4 года назад +1

      That’s what I thought as well. The first time I heard this noise was when my young rooster noticed a predatory bird in a tree nearby and the bird actually flew away. He clearly had not laid an egg. It’s strange because when you search egg song videos, you only hear this one, when the actual egg song is less sharp and more like an actual song.

    • @thevelahomestead201
      @thevelahomestead201  2 года назад +5

      Considering she laid an egg and started making these noises, and this is how my flock sounds every time they lay their eggs to this day, it is in fact, their egg song. 🤷‍♀️
