Unsecure chicken perches

[Diamond egg gal]

Well this morning Dolly spent 25 minutes sitting in the nesting area of my . Every so often her little head would look out the eglu door to check on the others (she's number one chock). When she wondered into the run I ran out to check but no egg Perhaps I had put her off by watching her too intently from the kitchen window!

So off I went to work. However when I returned at 2:30pm I saw a little brown something glistening from the middle of the run. I ran out into the garden and yes I found our first After I congratulated Dolly (I swear the neighbours think I have lost the plot) I then wondered how the hell I was going to retrieve it So after grabbing the garden rake I managed to pull the egg to the door of the run!

 

 

Its not bad this chicken keeping lark!

Congratulations, I still love collecting eggs even after over a year.

Hopefully she will get them in the nest box soon so it will be a bit eaasier to collect.
