1st Clutch Or 2nd?

Hi!

This is my first post, although I have been lurking in the back ground for weeks - reading and learning!!! :)

 

I love this site!

 

I have a hen who laid four eggs 2 weeks ago, sadly the eggs were broken by another hen in the aviary, she has since been removed. The hen has now laid another two eggs. My question is - is this 1st clutch or second? I am keen to rest her after two clutches as I have read is recommended, but am a little confused!

 

Any thoughts?

It sounds like in this one that 2 weeks have past since the last egg laid. If this is right then this round of eggs is clutch number two.

 

Good luck I hope these ones are able to hatch :) and glad to see another face (so to speak) around.
