Madbird Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Ginger, one of my brown hybrids has started crouching when I approach her... and is also getting very vocal! I am hoping we might get our first egg pretty soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&T Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I loved that moment, when they first started to crouch, and you know not long before your first "home made" boiled egg!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I've had a croucher for 2 weeks, but no egg yet! I virtually only have to look at her for her to crouch; she seems completely desperate for some male attention. [What a Hussy ]. Yesterday her sister joined in the crouching, but still no action - the suspense is killing me! Today, when cleaning the hen house, croucher No 1 got in there with me, which is a first, so I know she's very very nearly ready, but I do wish she'd hurry up!

I can't stay this excited for another two weeks! Wonder if I show her some empty egg boxes it would give her more encouragement?! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
