chooklady Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 We passed the 1000th egg mark yesterday, Ruby the Columbine laid it. Everytime I collect an egg I am still amazed by it, chickens are wonderful. I shall carry on counting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Ours are marked on a calendar and logged on the computer on a spread sheet mainly for OH's benefit because he likes to see how cost effective they are. At the moment we are only up to a total of 248 - but we are now down to a brill cost of 94p per egg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mark ours on the calendar and then record them on the computer, we have got to 824, looking forward to the 1000th egg Congratulations Chooklady on your 1000th egg, I think we appreciate eggs much more when laid by our own girls Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aga n Chickens Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Congratulations Chooklady Been away for a few days so I only saw this news today While we were away we asked the neighbours to keep a tally of any eggs (which they were quiet entitled to keep for looking after the chooks) so that we could keep our spread sheet going. Up to now we have had 846 from our 4 chooks in just under a year. The trend shows that each month the egg count and size is still increasing, but April will have to go some to beat the 110 we had in March. Well done to the girls, they still seem to be bouncing with health at the moment with no sign of slowing down as our neighbour informed us that she collected a total of 15 eggs during the 4 days that we were away !

Know what you mean, at the moment our eggs I call "golden eggs" because they have cost us so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
