3364ib Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Hi everyone, Just thought id let everybody know that one of my bluebells laid her first egg this morning. Was the size of a creme egg, ever-so sweet! Thought something was happening as ginger was causing a riot and kept going in and out of the Eglu. Shes so moody! as soon as i got the creme egg out, in she went and laid her own. Well just need bluebell - daisy to lay now. and the orps but I'm not holding my breath, their so dumb i don't think they'll be able to concentrate long enough!! still waiting x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruffalo Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Congratulations on your egg. I'm curious though. Do bluebells always lay little eggs? Our bluebelle, Bluebelle (imaginatively named by our son) has just started laying and her eggs are tiny. Smaller than a cream egg. It is making us chuckle she makes such a fuss and noise about laying them, and she is so much bigger than Daisiy who pops out huge eggs at least twice the size without so much as a murmur.

3364ib Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Hi Gruffalo, ha ha i cant believe that, my bluebells are called (wait for it!) bluebell and daisy I think they lay med/large eggs. and what do you mean smaller than a creme egg, in my eyes creme eggs are this small, but your right it probably is!!! i was just so chuffed. My Sussex's eggs look like dinosaur eggs in comparison The bluebells are quite dumb so they also get Kevin and perry as names too! just waiting for daisy and the orp babies, patsy and edina (aka squeak and beep beep) to start laying now!

3364ib Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Update Daisy the blue belle laid an egg today too. I had two tiny ones and one was broken unfortunately but even so there both on the right track. !! the shells today were quite brittle compared to yesterdays creme egg! is that normal for them to lay a good shell, then a bad one? One today was as round as a football!! oouch! x Hi Gruffalo, ha ha i cant believe that, my bluebells are called (wait for it!) bluebell and daisy I think they lay med/large eggs. and what do you mean smaller than a creme egg, in my eyes creme eggs are this small, but your right it probably is!!! i was just so chuffed.
