2 out of my 3 banties have started laying now, just one to go. They from the same eggs we hatched in Arpil but one lays a plain blue egg and the other lays a blue with brown speckles egg, I'm intrigued to know what colour the 3rd will lay when she starts.

it will be worth it in the long run thing. Eating and cooking your own eggs is so cool.
