Had a great Christmas present
« on: December 25, 2010, 02:13:24 pm »
Hi there - everyone
Sincerely hope you are having a great Christmas.
Had a super present this morning.
My 2010-hatched Scots Grey pullets have laid their first two eggs-on Christmas Day!
Cockie Rabbie (home-hatched early this year) has been 'treading' for a couple of weeks and they are all looking terrific.
Life is still freezing here in the Staffordshire Moorlands. -10C last night.

God bless, and best wishes for Christmas to everybody

Paul

Congratulations! Hope they have seasonal names  ;D

 ::) Just read the post properly - thought it was chicks hatched hence the name thing. I don't think many people name their eggs  ::)
