Egluntyne Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 One of my Fenton Blues bobbed a definite curtsey today!! Am hoping for a blue/green egg. Their ear lobes are all a definite green. They were 8 weeks old when I got them on August 7th and their combs and wattles have been reddening and developing nicely over the last couple of weeks.....so watch this space! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moomin Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Cool Can't wait to see those beautiful eggs. Please post pics I will be so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 That certainly sounds promising I am jealous of course as neither of my new blue egg layers have come into lay yet Araucanas are notoriously slow though. Two others bought at the same time are now laying, one is a maran, so dark brown glossy eggs, the other is an Ancona, so little white eggs. One of my teenagers, Roxanne has just come back into lay too I can't wait to hear your news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helenmb Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Ooooh, am very jealous as my 4 newer girls still aren't laying yet (one of which will be a layer). Looking forward to confirmation and a pic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Must be the time of year for coming back into lay/starting to lay - my skyline has just come back into lay after her winter break! Lovely blue eggs again! Will be great to see eggs from all your blueys Egluntine! I wonder what range of colours you will get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 One of my older girls has just started laying again too, so that's 3 in lay at the moment... not bad for pure breeds Roxanne has also just started to crouch for me and was in and out of the nest box earlier, so hopefully she's feeling the urge too.

chooklady Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Fingers crossed Eglutine, sounds like it shouldn't be long now. My corton blue isn't showing any signs of crouching yet, so I think I'll be waiting a while longer for my first blue egg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
