Alis girls Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Forgive me for being appallingly pathetic but one of my new girls is crouching. I hope this means an egg soon. My elderly bird has been laying eggs with thin shells and its so long since we saw a non shop bought egg I have got so demoralised its very eggciting. OH said "bout time" I got Prudie as she had a fairly red comb and was big and gobby but shes turned out to be a bit timid. She also gave my OH a beak lashing when he held her - the air was blue. Hey ho - hopefully an egg soon . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 No egg yet - went down and had words "ok Missus wheres my egg" all I got was a bok. I am not the most patient of persons. Whats the best music to do an egg dance too then? "how do yer like your eggs in the morning...." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Well done that girl Enjoy your long awaited egg Alis girls. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 Got another egg today - different colour so no idea whose laying - I dont think the other girl looks ready - her comb is red but short. Not complaining mind as eggs in the last 6 months have been verging on famine proportions at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 You will soon have too many eggs and your egg famine will be a thing of the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Could it be from the same girl? I have found that sometimes the egg colour changes as they start laying. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 On the downside I nearly fell over her as she did it on my foot and I wasnt expecting it. So nearly had a squashed crouching chicken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
