chicken bark Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Finding that first egg that a hen has laid for you brightens the whole day (or week ). I love opening that nest box lid and finding eggs inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henergy Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Congratulations ! We had our first eggs today (only got the hens yesterday !) very exciting. By the way, is it ok to just wipe the dirt off with a damp kitchen roll ? I did buy egg wash but it seems a faff for only 2 eggs ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracyann Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I wish.... Still no eggs for me, we've had them for four weeks, so they are now 21 weeks old I'm not asking for much, just a little or two... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Her first 2 eggs were double yolkers! her 3rd one (40g) only had one yolk.... but still good for such a small egg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
