Four eggs from five girls this morning!
Milly has been laying a few eggs a week for over a month now. A few days ago we started to get an occasional brown egg, but we didn't know who it was from. And now we're at 4 out of 5. What a lovely surprise!
The 4th egg had a weak spot in the shell (despite oyster shell being freely available). Need to watch out for that, as I don't want any of the Girls discovering that eggs are delicious.
I might be wrong, but I'm assuming that it's Tilda who isn't laying yet: as her comb and wattles aren't anywhere near as bright red as everyone else. I don't mind Tilda having a free ride.
