abwsco Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 and we can't eat any of them as they're all on baytril That's 15 eggs in two days. Oh, and Edna who only decided to start laying again after months and months off is laying 90g eggs. Very galling but at least I can boil them up and give them back to them.

Chickvic Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 How frustrating How long is it before you can eat their eggs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 How frustrating How long is it before you can eat their eggs? They had their first dose on Saturday and it's a full 7 days withdrawal so it will be next Sunday. Oh, and the emergency vet didn't tell me about egg withdrawal so it's a good job I knew.

Daphne Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 WOW! We have 9 hens but so far the record is 4 eggs in a day. I'd be beside myself with excitement/frustration if I was you!!! I'm getting into this baking lark rather than giving the surplus eggs away and I'm finding myself increasingly annoyed when enough eggs don't appear! Well done your girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 Well, we've only had 6 today. They're skiving lols I've only got 5 left on my skelter as well that we can use Hubby reckons that they'll all decide to stop laying next week for a bit Daphne, it was exciting to get nine Oh, and a lot of hubbys works colleagues asked to buy eggs this week as well. Typical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 with such a beautiful sunny day today we got 5 eggs from our 9 girls, including the first one from one of our older ladies this year, which is a record for us. I've put a bottle of fizz in the fridge which is a bit OTT but hey who cares! We're going to make tortillas next Sat for a party we're having (cut into bits on sticks) because I want to show off the colour of the cooked eggs...so get laying those girls. Oh and my neighbour asked me yesterday what I'm planning on baking this weekend as he could smell it from his shed! (in a nice way - cinnamon!) Its quite good when it starts to come together isn't it - can you eat yours yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
