Title: First eggs
Post by: evie2 on March 31, 2011, 17:08

Last week one of our poots laid an egg outside in the run, not too much of a surprise as the 4 older ones are just coming in to lay.

It was no bigger than a marble and perfectly round  ???

Now I thought it would be a wind(?) egg so imagine our surprise when it was broken open to reveal a perfectly formed, if tiny yolk and white  :blink:

So Iit got me wondering, has anyone else had this happen?

Stupidly, no :( the contents was about the size of a 50p and if it ever happens again I'll make sure pictures are taken ;)
