Eggtastic!

I arrived back home from my holiday to Suffolk (more to come on that in the next few days...) and I was immediately greeted with a very vocal chicken. When I say immediately, I mean immediately. And when I say vocal, I MEAN vocal.

Yes, one of my ladies - I've no idea which - laid me an egg.


It's our very first egg from our new brood so it was super exciting and even more-so that the little darling had waited until I got home to see it. Okay, I doubt she actually waited for me but ssh, that's a technical detail.

I thought it was a pretty good sized offering for the first egg? I have resisted the urge to cook it up and am going to wait until I have enough to make a cake so that we can all share in the eggy goodness!

love & kisses

PS I have missed blogging so much *sniff* I promise a return to the norm from this point forward!

  3. It's so lovely to have your own hens. Good luck with the cake making. Our girls are laying daily now and we just love a plain boiled egg!
