Rolo Rabbit Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Here it is! I'd forgotten to put any shredded paper in so poor Shirley laid it on the woody bit. Here it is again. And again. Bit of a funny shape but a whopping 65g!! Not bad for her first attempt. We're so proud of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAJ Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 It looks like a torpedo - certainly an individual egg from a charachter hen. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolo Rabbit Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 I sent pics of it to friends and they thought it looked like a sausage. Poor Shirley - she tried her hardest. Can't wait for the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
