Seagazer Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Such as having 2 eggs laid from my remaining 2 chickens bring such pleasure. Its not happened for months and I've been buying eggs regularly. But 2 whole, real eggs from my girls today. Happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Lovely . I was pleased today because Layla laid an almost proper egg. It has some attractive membrane hanging out of one end but it's better than the green floppy bits we've been getting . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Well done girls It is always lovely to find some eggs but after a period of time being eggless it is extra special Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Thanks, it was almost as exciting as when they first start laying ANH - that sounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeky Chooky Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Awww lovely It makes me happy every time I collect an egg I just love my girls to bits and they are pets primarily; the eggs are a bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizzyMomma Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Aww I too love finding the eggs, I make a point of saying "Thank You Girls" to them too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Aww I too love finding the eggs, I make a point of saying "Thank You Girls" to them too I always say thank you too, seems only polite. I do have 'words' with them if they don't lay anything though, naughty girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeky Chooky Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 It really makes me smile to think of the number of us women doing similar chicken-related things, like wandering around our gardens in our dressing gowns in the morning and all saying "thank you girls" in a sing-song voice as we collect the eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
