tidygirlsuk Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 I did dance, but i'm not sure how the egg dance goes, i hope the neighbours didn't see, they have got family over too, and some of them in the garden. they all think i'm nuts anyway.

Chickvic Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 The egg dance ususally involves somes jumping up and down, running, squealing and the most important bit - shouting "I'VE GOT AN EGG!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tidygirlsuk Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 I was very sad that first egg got broken, but i'm very pleased to say i've just gone to look and there was another lovely little egg. the last 1 was 31g and this one 36g. i think i'm going to fry it. What do most people do with their first egg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 We fried our first egg . That way you can see the yolk and everything (and it was easier to divide into 4, one bite each ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I kept mine for a while just to keep looking at it. I have dropped one as well and broken one in my pocket Surprised they keep laying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
