davemiracleman Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi Jennyhenny, we r new to this also. Stella was the only lady in the nest box today. We were out most of the day yesterday so if it had been laid then, we wouldnt have known who laid it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 All I've found in my nest box is poop Now thats another thread how do I stop that. Jennyhenny HI I was told my birds are 18 weeks & seeing as its only day 4 with me I am suprised at how the wattles are reddening up every day seem bigger. The breeder said they would lay in the next 4 weeks..they do go in the nest box..& i do peek in but alas wishful thinking. Too soon perhaps... No poop in nest area just anywhere else though...not sure how that gets solved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkisland Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Congratulations on your first egg - they are always a thrill! I let my girls out for the first time today too - they loved every minute, and it was so nice to watch them tentatively exploring Your girls are beautiful, I fancy a bluebelle myself someday.
