Martin B Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) So they are finally here. The eglu is set up nicely in the garden, and Lesley and Carly are beautiful. However as the title suggests we have already had a first egg. It was in the Container when we were going to get them out! We all love them! AT LAST! Will talk more later! Here are the pictures. One of the eglu in my garden and the other of Lesley (Gingernut) and Carly (Pepperpot) ---Martin--- Edited May 18, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
