andy Burgess Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 sounds like a lack of nutrition of some sort . always a shot in the dark without handling them first hand though ?
greenlands Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Dose anyone have a remedy for this the hens are two year olds and three year old got four hens two didn't lay after first round last yearYour not the only one mate,never had anything like it since I started with pigeons many moons ago,some ready for hatching others nothing like laying,exercising very well,droppings spot on.? :emoticon-0138-thinking:
Tony C Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 how long have they been paired up? we're they ill at anytime last year?
REDCHEQHEN Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 We have a hen (new stock, yearling) who hasn't laid - she's been looked at by two fanciers - their conclusion - she's fat!! So she's on barley for a while!!
old owl Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Posted February 23, 2015 paired up three weeks now all other pairs laid, nothing up with them last year
sammy Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 paired up three weeks now all other pairs laid, nothing up with them last year to cold for them
walterboswell59 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 to cold for themthat would be my guess to sammy some hens will just not lay if you get a cold snap it can knock them back for weeks others it dont seem to bother them
