Egg bounty

 I wondered where the new girls were laying their eggs - the inside of the hutch has hardly been touched. There has been almost constant rain since I brought these ladies home, and I couldn't work out where they were laying, if they were.


Then I looked under a flap of heavy cardboard covering the spiral staircase, and lo! There they were - a veritable bounty!



There were so many, I couldn't quite balance them all in this small plastic tray, and a few smashed to the ground. This however gave me the chance to see that the yolks were a lovely golden colour, and they seemed fine to eat.


Whoops!
