Eggstremely Happy

I have eggcellent news about the hens.

Firstly, I have added an eggstension to their run so that they can have more space when I am unable to let them roam free.

I haven't really been looking in the nest box for eggs, since they are so out of condition they really should be off-lay. But lo and behold, at some point today one of the girls laid an egg, complete with feathers attached.

Can't wait for the next one, so I can fry them sunny side up and savour the flavour. Never had freshly laid egg before.

  6. No way can I compete with the egg jokes already used so I won't even try :-)

    It's great that you had an egg already...but once you've had fresh ones you won't ever want to go back to shop bought
