HampshireGardener Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Went to see how the chickens had coped with their first night, and bring them some food, and found a lovely speckly egg in the nest box! So exciting but I remembered to say thank you! DH is going to have it for lunch. Hope to sort out how to do the photos today.

Flossieflipflop Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I got my four girls last Saturday afternoon and couldn't believe it when we had 3 eggs on Sunday. I thanked them all - even Rose who had 'let us down' that day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 That was quick Some of us have waited ages for eggs I always show the girls the egg and say thank you, often asking who laid it but they never tell me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
