Hi Bethan - no problem - they're 6 weeks old now, but you've got yours already.  There are still some left.

Hi Wizard - the black rocks should lay more eggs than the pure breeds tho! And lay better quality (ie no wrinkly shells etc dont know about taste I think that may have more to do with feeding, access to cropped grasses etc)  eggs for longer than the brown hybrids
