Snowy Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 First egg today - went to let the girls out at lunchtime, and there it was, still warm, in the nest box!! And on the same day that my birthday present arrived in the post - the egg holder. What a day! Think the egg must be Florrie's as she has a bigger, redder comb than Pom (no comb at all, bless!) Funnily enough, bought a nice piece of gammon to have for tea, so I think that OH might get it, fried, on top of his! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Snowy, you've just cost me a fortune....I absolutely had to have one of those egg racks. (Father Christmas will give it to me.) Whilst I was looking I also bought a china mug (Chickens on Stilts) and a book on Modern Vermin Control. (Am determined to beat the rat). ........and its all your fault!!!!

Chicken Licken Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 The egg holder - I think I must have one - Christmas list here we go!! Also would zinger, popcorn etc team up with my K, F and C (although I only have F and C at the moment!!) Well done kirbyhouse - enjoy the eggs they are soo yummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbyhouse Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Chicken Licken, My egg holder arrived this morning - really quick! It's lovely. Will look better with an egg or two but no Sainsburys or Tesco is good enough! My three are pigging away at their mash pellets so maybe in the New Year...? Good luck with yours, fab names!! Have a great Christmas. Sal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
