| First egg celebration. Photography by F L Campbell |
Bush eggs: none. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: full. Weather: a beautiful day, not too hot, a slight breeze.
I told Paula a better story today. I told her how in the olden days when hens laid their first egg The Female Person would make a special raisin and jam sandwich, then get out the camera and take a photograph of the sandwich, the hen and the blessed event (the egg). There also used to be birthday photographs: one each year for each chicken’s birthday, again with handmade cakes. It seems like The Female Person had a bit more time back in the golden, olden days.
