Three eggs!
« on: June 01, 2012, 18:21 »
I know it's silly, but I have a big grin on my face tonight. We have, for the first time, had three proper eggs from three hens. :D

We were getting a bit worried that the black rock was going to have problems as she has had a couple of episodes of laying soft eggs, and was quite poorly a while back. She is bouncing fit now, climbing in all the pots and wrecking the borders, but laid another softy a couple of days ago. Today she laid a (rather large) perfect egg.  :D

Not really bothered about getting a lot of eggs, just want happy healthy chooks.

Congratulations.   :D

One of our Broody Bantams "Lotty" started laying again a couple of days ago.  Her chicks are only 7 weeks old and we caught her bullying one of them today.  We have put her back in her old coop on her own which she is not happy about.   :(

It great when you start getting eggs from your own chooks tastes so much nicer too :D

Getting three most days now, happy neighbours each side, they've both had a box. Although we don't really see much of them, they both say they like to hear the chooks going about their business.
