How many fertalized eggs will the chicken lay in one setting?
A chicken can lay anywhere between 5 and 12 eggs in one setting. (numbers can vary, but this is about the average). Also, if you have other laying chickens in the same nesting boxes, it is not uncommon for the laying chicken to steal eggs from the other chickens. So dont be suprised to find more than the average amount of eggs. We've come home to find a chicken laying on 18 fertilized eggs before. of course, these included the stolen eggs too!

Can chickens eat chicken yolks?
Yes! Egg is good for chickens in moderation. You would want to cook it first though so they do not get in the habit of pecking eggs. Contrary to the previous answer... egg yolks are not baby chicks! Not all chicken eggs are fertilized. Hens lay eggs whether there is a rooster present or not; we get three eggs a day from our three ladies and no roosters are allowed in city limits. You are not eating baby chickens when you eat eggs! You can even feed your chicken...chicken!

My peahens are over 3 years old but still haven't laid any eggs I have given them laying mash since Feb Is it too late for them to lay?
It is not too late for peahens to start laying eggs, as they can begin laying around 2-3 years old. Factors like stress, diet, and environmental conditions can affect egg production. Ensure they have a balanced diet, proper nesting area, and a stress-free environment to encourage laying.
