RE: CCC contest Looking back Look forward 5.29- my news
Last year was't great if it comes to harvesting. Hopefully, it will be better this year. Congrats with your eggs. It depends on how many eggs you have how many will lay an egg. Do you know how much time they need to lay an egg daily? (a chicken needs more than 24 hours). What kind of food do you give them?
Your flowers look great perhaps the soil is better for flowers than vegetables?

My birds are not laying eggs all of them. They have a maturation time to start laying eggs. At 8 weeks of age, they are ready to lay eggs.
They lay one egg every 20 to 22 hours.
I have 5 females and I hope that soon they will all be activated to lay eggs.
There is one male for 3 females but I bought only one male.
I give them prepared food to stimulate egg laying. They sell it at the farm store.
My garden is beautiful, it has eggplant plants, tomatoes, and peppers but in the envelope seeds I bought and sowed there is only one radish growing, out of 20 seeds only one was good to develop.
When I get out of this harvest I will try again by putting all the seeds I have left in the remaining envelopes, adding them to another fertilized soil, and waiting.
I think the bought seeds are K3 or perhaps old. It's disappointing. With me the seeds did sprout but no fruits. It grows very slow took months and still nothing. It's better to use the seeds from own plants. You are lucky with what you have.
I wonder why one male is not enough. They do not lay eggs without a male like chickens?
They lay eggs without the presence of a male, prepared food is enough for them to lay better. But I also want to have fertile eggs that can only be obtained when the male is present.
I want to have more quails born in my house.
