The little girls keep each other company in the nest box

The little girls both laid an egg on the same day two weeks ago. I am sure they will both lay another egg soon as they keep going into the nest box together. They seem to like to keep each other company and the big girls like to come and check them out.

Notice on the above two photos how different in shape the little girls combs are. This is because Amber had the top of her comb pecked off during integration with the big girls.

They have been in and out of the nest box like this for the last few days. I am sure the elusive eggs will arrive soon.
