shemybelle Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Rocky Balboa, our Rhode Rock, laid a softie the first day here (Sunday), so I've been expecting a proper egg and this morning we got one! She sat in the nest box (clever girl) for about half an hour, and the other two (Apollo the Snowdrop and Super Ally the Bluebell) stood right outside the Eglu, as if they were standing guard. Here it is (hope this works)! Lx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeluk69 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Wow! That looks huge!! Have you weighed it yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shemybelle Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Not yet. I'll do that when I get home. It's about the same size as a shop bought egg. I think I just have tiny hands! Lx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shemybelle Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 Thank you, guys! I was so excited about the egg, just had I share the news with people who understand. I didn't really "get it" until I got my first one. I was grinning like a fool all day yesterday! I'm supposed to be going out this morning, but I want to hang out in the garden to see if I get another egg! Lx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
