chocchick Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 After a 2-3 month wait we have a beautiful little 53g egg. She spent yesterday taunting me by going in and out of the eglu, especially when I was cleaning out, and she shredded the new newspaper and threw it off the nest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geb0205 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Hey, well done that chook!! A big question remains... how are you going to eat it?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Not sure maybe boiled/fried due to the size If not may give this egg or another if she lays more to our friend's 4 year old as it seems quite child-sized Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 I got Abbie and Megan late December to replace Susannah who died just before Christmas http://club.omlet.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8337&start=0 One chicken out, two in Fooled OH Megan's comb/face still looks similar to when we got them, so it will be a while for her yet. Her body is getting fatter though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
