Falkor Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Well done Dory!! Maybe the older girls had a chat with her and explained what she needed to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 I dont know how to eat it, I will have to have a family discussion I think she was really 'taken' with the cube nestbox, she loved it! I have 3 eggs now, they have all laid except Flo.... They probably did tell her what was what.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Well done Dory It just makes it all the more exciting to see what colour egg Flo will eventually lay!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Well done Dory It just makes it all the more exciting to see what colour egg Flo will eventually lay!! I know.. and she's crouching... well it's a semi crouch.. not a completely flat one like the others. I tried taking a photo of her cheeks today and thought wow that was a close shot and it's just not clear, but they are definately yelowy green so I think green. I am so proud of my clever Dory though, to wake up in a strange cube and run and then lay her egg needs a good egg award, Omlet!!! she needs a medal!

Redwing Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Congratulations! I love the egg, its very rounded like my Bluebelle's eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 It's funny Tasha but I was reading the thread about bluebelles eggs and they say they are rounded I am a happy chook mummy! I dont even know how she knew to lay in the nest box though, becuase the others laid after her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 there were two softies in the poop trays this morning!!! so I am guessing thats Dory as the others do not lay or sleep there. Plus Sugar has just laid as normal and Cocoa normally follows. edited to add, I think one might have been Flo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
