Clur Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Am so excited - had 2 eggs waiting in the next box for me today! I think it's Dilys and Flory, just Milly to go now And the bonus is that they are all squatting now and they are so easy to pick up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Congratulations! What colour are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clur Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 They're brown eggs - and they taste gorgeous. Even DH is sold on them now (he wasn't keen on us getting chickens at first). Faberge, it doesn't look like you are too far from me at all - I'm glad I'm not the only one round here with chickens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Clur, I ran a chicken course last weekend and there was a guy from Bracknell with an eglu and 3 hens!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 All you guys are near to me too Congrats on the eggs - there is nothing like the feeling you get when you see an unexpected egg in the nest box! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clur Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Perhaps we should have a local meet?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabergé Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Perhaps we should have a local meet?! There are several Berkshire Omleteers that I've noticed on the forum. If you like the idea of a local meet, you could put a suggestion in the 'Get togethers' section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clur Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Sounds great - there's some nice places to meet. I'll get my thinking hat on and suggest something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
