Lesley-Jean Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Yes your right your is not mature enough to lay yet. So in a little time you will have the pleasure of another first egg. Don't forget to put your pictures in the gallery (if you haven't already) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Congratulations! Finally after such a long wait. Well done on the egg too. Lesley may be ginger now but poor Carl is a Pepperpot called Carly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 I use photo-bucket so I haven't got any in the gallery. Unless some on e can put my pictures in there for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Martin, you need to upload to the gallery from your PC at home, it's almost the same as doing it to photobucket, or you can post us a link to your photobucket album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Not jealous... But I want an eglu too. Money doesn't grow on trees and they're still too expensive for me. Plus there isn't one on sale near me, if only I'd convinced my parents to buy Mrs. Rotty's it would all have been so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Ah come on noeglu....that's not the spirit.... ring Omlet, find out how much for a recon one and GET SAVING! I am sure if your parents are happy for you to have one in principle, you could get there! Birthdays, Christmas, ask for money instead, part time job? Boot sales.... come on everyone... what else could noeglu do... (no bank robbing suggestions please) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Just a quick update. Carly seems to have established herself as the head chook! She seems to be very busy but they both get on fine. Also no eggs today, to all of my freinds dissapointment. I said if they laid any they could take it home, but there were none! Also I now have an album in the gallery! ---Martin--- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Martin I still haven't fathomed out how to put any pictures on here Clare, I have PM'd you some instructions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I'm sure you'll get lots of tasty eggs once your girls have settled in properly Martin. They'll need to get to know their new home and feel safe and secure before they settle into a routine. It won't take long before they recognise you and are each laying an egg a day. How many friends were going to have to fight over the egg I've also named your ablum in the gallery so people know it's your album and your hens.

Martin B Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 4 friends! I said Highest bidder wins! Also I had a beautifully formed egg this morning. It looks really tasty it is sat in an egg box with the first egg until I can be bothered to cook them. Probably tomorrow, I love fried egg and toast on Sunday Mornings. I still have no eglu.co.uk blog so I'll be writing on here. Good Luck to everyone going to the rescue today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
