redfrock Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 We think she has just laid! It happened while we were out at work today. Tuesday laid early before I left for work (and didn't she enjoy letting the world know! Normally she lays in the afternoon). OH has gone home early and there was Bron's usual perfect white egg and another pale brown egg. It's paler than Tuesday. Orla is a Bovans, while Tuesday and Carmen are both daisybelles, so we don't think it is Carmen's. Also Oh came in yesterday to tell me (delete this if I shouldn't write it please mods ) that Orla had gone into the 'do me' position (why can't he just say crouch???? ) We are doubly pleased if it is Orla as we have been so worried about her health. The fact that it loks like she has laid an egg suggests that finally she is well and truly on the mend. She certainly had an awful lot of spark yesterday. I still say she suffers from SAD - hot day; cheerful chook, miserable day; moping chook Claire x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfrock Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 We were wrong! We caught Carmen in the act today. So although Carmen and Tuesday are supposedly the same breed they are laying very different coloured eggs . Best update my sig now...
