Luvachicken Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Each day since the 6th Jan I have checked the nesting box for eggs. The 6th Jan is when mine started laying last year. Each day no eggs I bought them wood chips and expected an egg as a thank you but no egg. For my birthday I had a little plastic, purple hen shelter, did they say thank you with an egg - no. In fact, they haven't even been in the little house Today though, I got a lovely surprise and found an egg !!! I think it could have been any of them. Zoe has been the reddest for ages, Polly has been busy clucking and Gemma was very interested in the nest box today. Hooray for spring and eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted March 19, 2017 Author Share Posted March 19, 2017 The most of had from my 3 is 2 eggs in one day I don't mind because I do actually have a little collection of eggs that I'm quite happy about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
