HasSumAmi Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Hooray! Our first two egg day! They were in the nest box for an HOUR today! (They ALWAYS go in together when Omlet is egg laying!) I was a bit concerned (like an expenctant dad outside a maternity ward - I paced! ). I thought that Omlet was having a problem so was getting quite worried when they remained inside for so long as she normally only takes about twenty minutes. But she wasn't having a problem! Instead Ginger was laying an egg! Clever girls! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah B Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Congrats! That is making me excited about my first 2 egg day now - I'm still waiting for Tikka my Gingernut Ranger to lay!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Ah, well done Chooks, Congratulations! My Wyandotte still takes an hour over it - good job we have 4 nests! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trixabell Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 awwr how lovely, its been a while since I've had a two egg day, seems my Rose is spent, her insides are exhausted from laying in the bloody battery farm and Martha has stopped laying currently (maybe all the stress of being bullied), so its all down to Gwyn i'm afraid!! I have no idea how long she takes to do it though, i've never taken much notice!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarabelle Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Well done Ginger! I have to say, my girls are really quick when they lay. No messing about! Saw something quite weird today, Clarabel did a poo on the lawn and I could see an egg in her cloaca. She laid it about half an hour later.

Reikiranf Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 That's great news, Clever Ginger Can't wait til all my girls are laying, Yum Yum's started crouching so hopefully it won't be too long before she lays an egg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
