Luvachicken Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I know that all of my girls are laying now and am desperately waiting for the day when I get 6 out of 6 but yesterday, just to give me a little taster, they laid me 5 eggs I was so pleased to get 5. Clever girls who I rewarded with a pot of mealworms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi5 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yay Omlettes at your house Hopefully you'll get a six egg day soon I only have Polly laying and she's been a bit off colour no egg since tue I don't know if she's missing Martha, or finding Max all to herself too much Maybe I'll get an egg today Martha is being a very good mum to her chicks, but no eggs from her for a long while yet Enjoy your yummy eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Oooh Luvachicken so close! Because everyone has different days off I guess it takes a lot of co-ordination to get all 6 on the same day! I was glad I'd been out on my 'full house' day so that all the eggs were waiting for me in the nest box and I hadn't collected them one by one. Production has taken a hit here as Penny is broody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Well done 5 is good, 6 even better Maybe soon. I used to love full house days, When I just had the 4 hybrids I used to get them fairly regularly when they were young. Now with Monsieur Noir there is no hope One of my bantams isn't keen on laying which is a shame as she lays nice dark brown eggs. Fingers crossed for a 6 egg day soon.

Luvachicken Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 I really don't mind how many eggs I get It is nice to know that they can all lay though. As for that broody word - please don't mention it - I have already noticed that Polly has a lovely naked tummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claireabella Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Well done those girls! 5 out of 6 is great Daisy and Mo Mo seem to be taking it in turns in the broody cage recently I hope Penny doesn't join in any time soon... Don't do it Polly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
