What a Surprise!!

Post by KathJ »

My husband has just called me to say our oldest lady who must be over 5 has just laid an egg in the chicken run )like( She hasn't laid for at least three years and we've nearly lost her a few times but she keeps bouncing back. There's obviously life in the old girl yet {rofwl} {rofwl}

If she laid it in the run it must have been a surprise for her too!
