Mutrix Farmers Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 We've become the proud owners of a new eglu and will be taking delivery of 3 hens next week. So excited at the prospect of chickens in the garden! Have been reading lots of posts on the forum - thanks for all the handy hints and tips. Hadn't realised it could take 6 weeks before I get an egg though!! Still patience is a virtue they say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 It's not always 6 weeks, sometimes they're more obliging and you'll only have to wait 5 weeks and 6 days! Welcome to the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Hi and welcome, you might be lucky and get one three hours after they arrive like we did! Mind you we had to wait a few days after that, or like our ex-batts who laid one in the box on the way home! It only depends on how old they are plus the move will upset them a little bit anyway.
