Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Only really works if your girls don't sleep in the eglu (which mine don't!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 brilliant. Just watch out for red mites... they love corrugated cardboard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Good point, DM, hadn't thought of that . They spend so little time in the eglu, I'm hoping redmite will get bored waiting and move on . Might just sprinkle a little powder about though just in case!

clucker1 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Lindafw My girlies are equally hopeless! 1 egg today! I did mention the word "pie" to them today, but I don't think they took much notice of me. Seriously thinking about getting more girls if production doesn't soon improve. Think its the older girls age as they are nearly 2 years old. My 6 month old girlies should lay tomorrow. Hoping more light might improve the situation with the older girls or am I hoping in vain?
