This pretty little designer backyarder will help me move through that waiting list. (She's one of yours Denise)
On the weekend my curious 3 year old son was peering through a crack in the veranda and sat bolt upright screaming "Eggs, eggs."
My first thought was blue tongue lizard eggs becasue I know they live under there but to my surprise we pulled out 26 smallish white eggs. It seems Sunflower started to lay a lot earlier than expected.
We might have to change her name to Sneaky.
It was the weekend for finding eggs. I also found a dozen or so in an old box in the laundry tucked up beside the hot water cylinder. It kind of made sense to nest there so I have turned it into a proper broody area.
Hopefully the warm, humid environment will prompt a few more hens to sit and hatch some of these gorgeous eggs.
The initial results of the great commercial layer pellet challenge are almost ready for release...
