AnnieP Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 One of my colleagues made us three sets of curtains for a 3 month supply of eggs. Bargain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Clare Both of our neighbours are nearly self sufficient between them in the vege department, so we get pretty much a good vareity all year round for swapsey eggs, as well as chicken sitting and some homebrew. Lovely neighbours. We are very lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I'd just like some darned eggs at the moment - I now have 4 broodies! Must be something in the water - it's like the miners in the 70s - one out, all out. It's not fair; I have 7 hens and only two are laying, and Fleur's still a learner, so a bit hit and miss. I might have to relieve Lesley of some of her eggs on Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 4 Broodies. How unlucky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
