Rhapsody Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 further to my last thread, Magnifico did in fact lay an egg this morning! Tiny bantam-size one so perfect light brown and clean. My younger son had it boiled with one soldier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhapsody Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 She laid another one today! It was HUUUUUUUUUUUGE 3 times the size of yesterdays. I saw her ambling into the eglu singing a very funny tune, she sounded like a snake-charmer's flute saw her on nest gave it an hour then casually reminded my son to change their water and check 'just in case she's laid another egg' He came running into the kitchen with giant egg and big smile.
