Cloud9 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Hi all, just had to post as I'm absolutely egg-static. We've had Buttercup and Daisy for ten days and they both laid their first egg today!!!! One was 41g and the other 42g. They look so tiny next to Emily's egg (71g today). Will they get bigger the more they lay? I just can't believe how perfectly formed they were and am just so proud of them both Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckbok Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Yes they do get bigger, ours are laying bigger fatter eggs now. Had first double yolker last week soooo eggciting!!! I just wish Pecky would get her gear together and lay!!!! feels like she's never gonna lay!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Two first eggs in one day, hope you did that dance! Yes, they will get bigger, and they should become regular too, they may be a bit irregular to start with. Enjoy eating them!!
