Fur 'n' Feathers Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Congratulations! It's a strange thing waiting for first eggs.. sort of like awaiting a birth (Sad, aren't we ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Clucker Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 Yea, we are a little strange...but its worth it for those scrummy omlettes! lol Funny how those change the hen too...nugget used to be a miniature velociraptor complete with jumping at you with both feet! Now she follows me around like a puppy and loves to ba cuddled (which she deserves for those huuuuuge eggs! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
