Timmy has laid an egg!

Recommended Posts

Not altogether unusual for a hen, I'll grant you that, but Timmy the Speckledy hasn't bothered laying an egg for 14 months. She stopped laying in her first winter and I thought that was going to be that.

 

But... she started squatting last week, then laid a few papery shelled eggs which just collapsed immediately and today she's managed her first proper egg! I wonder if she'll continue to lay from now on or just for the spring? It's nice to see the brown speckled eggs again :D She's also become much more friendly which is a big help although she did try and get into the kitchen yesterday in case there were tasty treats on offer!
