Bush eggs: one. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: full.
Paula has been asking everyone (everyone who can lay, that is) about their first egg. She is due to lay hers very soon, now she’s a point-of-lay pullet. There is definitely an air of nervous excitement about her. I had told her about my first egg already (the one that The Little Person broke) so I told her the story about being caught laying by the people. I couldn’t move because the egg was so far down and I had to keep on squatting and panting even with the people all up close and WAY too personal. I wasn’t trying to put Paula off – the story just sort of came out – but she wasn’t impressed and huffed off elsewhere for “good” advice.
