bellekatz Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Well after 2 soft eggs and a day with no eggs we have our first two egg day!! And not only that but one of the girls has laid a whoppa!! I tried to put a picture in the gallery but failed miserably - but it weighs in at 85g!! Twice as heavy as we usually have. And it had to happen, we are getting a third chicken at the weekend - a Cream legbar 18 week old so hoping to add some blue/green eggs to the mix soon!! I am so excited about everything this afternoon!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabbagepatch Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 eggciting and congratulations How long have you had your girls? Three weeks tomorrow for me and not a sign.....naturally I'm being very patient.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellekatz Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Ive had them 3 weeks yesterday - Marmite layed after 4 days but Ginge has only just layed int hte last day or so. Have yours started sqatting when you stand over them yet? Ginge did that for about a week before her first egg. Marmite was pretty mature when we got her though only 2 week older than Ginge. Looking forward to having Ellie before these two get too settled!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feemcg Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I've had 2 'whoppers' (out of 17 eggs) and they were double yolkers. I find it all very exciting but my friends think I'm crazy when I try to show them my egg pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
