Gold as usual only took a one week break between going broody and starting to lay again. She then laid two days running missed a day and laid again this morning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Storm gave up being broody after a couple of days. Mango and Cloud being broody together has caused them to take longer to come out of it as they egg each other on, excuse the pun! However a few days later Mango gave up and a few days after that Cloud has almost given up. She stays out in the run all day but sits in the corner of the chicken shed at bedtime. I lift her to the perch and she stays there so I think she is almost through it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both Dot and Gold are laying two days out of three so we are getting enough eggs to keep us going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I always feel a post is a bit flat without photos so when I was ready to give out the end of the day treat of sunflower hearts I took my camera with me. The girls all run to me in expectation. I had to keep stepping backwards and then quickly click but got a good group photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just after this my husband came back from the allotment with a huge spinach plant that had gone to seed. We put it in the run and I took another photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The girls loved this and were pecking away until bedtime. Today they have stripped the spinach and just left the stalk. Happy girls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Gold as usual only took a one week break between going broody and starting to lay again.
