ali-s Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) My speckled Star has just laid her first egg It is tiny and weighed in at 39g. Of the four new girls she has the smallest and palest comb, I thought the other 3 would start laying before her. She had been in the nest box for quite some time when I heard the egg song. In my haste to get to the Eglu I turned my ankle in a dip in the lawn Now my foot is sore and numb at the same time. I had to hobble the rest of the way to the Eglu.

Chucky Mama Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 when I heard the egg song.

Well done her sorry to laugh at your pain but it did make me chuckle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Daisy and Bluebell both laid their first egg this morning. Both in the nest box when I opened the Eglu door. Daisy came out first having laid a 36g egg and Bluebell soon after, her egg weighed 38g. All four new girls now laying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
