    Egyptian Fayoumis- where are the eggs??

    So I’m learning about Egyptian Fayoumis and I read they do not like to be cooped up. That’s true because they moved into our flock from someone else’s house- definitely free spirits. I tried to return them a couple times but they really like it over here. So we’re happy to have them, however...
