jellykelly Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Well, I think it was the orp. I only got her on monday and she was 19 weeks. This morning she was acting strangely. She was trying to escape the confines of the garden, kept popping in and out of the nesting area. She'd sit in there but reappear after 20 mins. Anyway, I found a small, almost pink egg in the middle of their grassy area. Sadly the egg is already sold as I have an order to fulfill tomorrow so I don't get to try it yet - but woop woop - Camilla has laid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Has she gone broody yet?! Only joking - congratulations on the egg. Are you sure it was the orp? Didn't think big fluffy breeds laid until they were 7-9months old... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellykelly Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 My white cochin is about 8 months (only had her since monday too) - but I don't think she's ventured out this morning. I don't know now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
