Hi my name is Ashneel, Auckland, NZ

[Ashneel08]

I recently invested in a pair of egg-laying hens so I have developed an interest in keeping them happy and enjoying the experience of having fresh eggs. At this point in time, my pullets are around 18-20 weeks of age and haven't reached POL yet, but I believe they are due around xmas/new year. I've named my hens Nandos & Peri-Peri as they go well together and really cheeky! Anyway, I look forward in sharing my experiences with members of this site, as well as learning along the way!

Cheers,
Ashneel

Glad you could join us here! Congratulations on your hens Hooe you get those eggs real soon! Waiting for those first ones can seem to take an age but when when you find those little treasures the wait is well worth it.
