Title: wee success story
Post by: northfifeduckling on May 06, 2013, 03:53:01 pm

just to let you know that the mustard/very hot chilli filled eggs did the trick again. After weeks of declining egg numbers I felt that the birdies might have remembered that they could eat eggs. So one morning I had 2 broken mustard eggs and since then almost every day a full egg count . I also showed them an egg and had a serious word with them when they shot towards it  :roflanim: ;) :chook:

I suspect it was more to do with your severe talking to than the mustart/chilli egg  :roflanim:
