How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Cooks]

This is our first ever egg, I was eating breakfast in the garden and Sugar went into the eglu and laid this tiny egg in the nest box, she wasn't making that much of a noise, but you knew she was doing something

 

I have weighed it and it's only 31g!! I am ashamed to say I ran around the gardden like a loony..

Kate you guessed it would be this weekend, we didn't bet money though did we??

 

I would have bet it would be cocoa that laid first though... shows how much I know *humph!!*

Wow exceleent news. Don't worry I went completely batty the day we got our first - big big grin all over my face.

 

Trouble is have had soffies, all decent size now, but for the last 3 days. Hoping it is the weather or her gear trying to get into shape

 

Hey 31g is good - Roast's second came in at 26g

[Cooks]

ooh I thought 31g was small, it seems small in my hand. I might have large hands though

 

son came home and went loopy!!!!!! he's not bothered it wasn't him that found it, I did contemplate leaving it for him to find, but thought it might get damaged.

 

It's a very creamy beige, at least now we should know what colour is who's becuase I think the cocoa the black rock will lay a darker egg.

 

It was funny because cocoa was pacing up and down in front of the eglu, and kept peering in occasionally.

Nothing to be ashamed of

Don't bank on it - Roast our Black Rock laid a lovely cream egg to start with and now she is either laying soft shelled browner eggs or another is laying them and she has given up!!! Hope she is not egg bound at this early stage I can't tell who is laying as she seems to be the only one really crouching and the softies are now being laid at night through the roosting bars Two or three nights in a row now - can't remember

 

Hoping its the weather

Wow!! What a lovely egg . Well done Sugar. I wish I'd put a bet on now . Congratulations on the first of many .

 

it is isn't it.. a lovely shape for her first egg, bless her little heart, I might give her a few extra treats in her bowl tonight.. Come on Cocoa your letting the side down now..

 

Son wants to blow the egg, he doesn't want to 'lose' it just wondering whether it'll blow ok.

 

You cant see on the photo but it has tiny white speckles on it... so cuuuuute.

 

Nothing to be ashamed of

I am glad I am good company then

[Chickvic]

I've kept all the first eggs, blown them and written name, date and weight on Ruby finally joined in today! Running round the garden like a loony is the egg dance usually accompanied by "We've got an egg!" very loudly!

[Cooks]

cant quite believe this, Cocoa has been in the nest box and laid her first egg aswell.. I am stunned, it's almost like she didn't want to be left out!!! picture to follow, but its much bigger than sugars

[Cooks]

right here's Cocoa's first egg, laid today aswell *fans herself* 46g's!!!!

I need a stiff drink - that's a full house for us today, even though we only have two girls, being as it's their first ever egg, this is special!!

[Snowy]

Fantastic, two first eggs in one day! Don't burst with exitement though will you! Well done Sugar and Cocoa

[Mrs Frugal]

They are beautiful eggs! Congratulations - again . It's so nice that you can tell who has laid which egg by the colour too.

 

Two eggs for dinner now .

[Cooks]

I dont know about that snowy, I am hyper!.. I could barely contain myself with one first egg, but then in cocoa went and made a bit more noise than sugar, it has to be said, but then again her egg was a good size for a first egg wasn't it??

 

Bless them, they have been mooching around the garden looking very proud of themselves.

 

Next door neighbours hens make an awfull racket when they lay I have never heard anything like it!

 

Yes I love the colour difference. I wish there was an egg graphic for cream though... Sugars is definately cream as the breeder said it would be.

 

We're blowing them though for the children to keep.

[Chickvic]

That's even better! A 2 egg day!

I was running around the garden like a looney - whilst the double glazing salesman was sat at my dining room table adding up his figures

 

It is really great getting those first eggs - I had two in one day, and couldn't believe it!

[Cooks]

we've blown them, I went slightly lightheaded in the process they are intact and seem very good shells to be honest. I now have to find two little boxes for them to be stored in..

[Christian]

Congratulations Loopyloo

[Cooks]

thanks Christian I wonder whether they give us anything today??

[Phosphorus]

I am waiting with you - didn't get any softies overnight - have had four in the last two nights. Hoping she is now about to get into the stride of things and give a proper shelled egg

 

Hope you get two today as well - that would be really something - one with a good shell would do me

[Cooks]

well Sugar has laid again so far, I came back from work to a 33g egg, beautifull and cream Maybe Cocoa was waiting for it to be removed from the nest box??

[Phosphorus]

I am so

 

Waiting to see what Roast does - first morning I didn't find two softies in the droppings tray - hoping she is holding onto a proper egg

[Cooks]

nothing from Cocoa so far, she's mooching about the garden munching on plants, much more important than laying an egg.

[Cooks]

nope, nothing from Cocoa although I have to say, her egg was larger than sugars yesterday so she's probably resting her bits bless her.
