Two eggs this morning :mrgreen: .. sadly both soft shelled and it looks as though they were dropped from a perch! :( but the 'interior' is still intact on both eggs - so no egg eating I think :-D .. We're getting there )t'

Phil, I dont know if this is just co incidence but you mentioned your girls squatting down infront of you about a week before they started laying, Verity had the same experience with her girls ... Mine started doing the same about a week ago.. It may be a submissive thing but it realy does look as though they're sqatting for a cockrel and its something they do roughly a week before they start laying... puberty??
