This song is not translated right in some parts. For example, no te canses ahora doesn't mean don't lose your breath now, it means don't get tired now. A small difference, but it still is mistranslated. Anyways, I much prefer the song in Spanish, it sounds so much prettier.
I know Barred Rock's are reported to not go broody, and that is why they're good production hens. I have two barred rocks and upon looking in the coop today I noticed Esther was sitting in the box. She lays early in the morning, never the afternoon, so I opened the door to the garden.
My three barred rocks started laying in April. The eggs were the classic brown color, basically the same color as store-bought brown eggs. Around June and July we got about one egg a day from each hen -- each afternoon there would be three in the nesting box. Then a few weeks ago, they started laying infrequently. Now we get one new egg every two or three days, a drastic decrease in production.
