WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!
I was just making some apple upside down cakes for Thanksgiving and decided to use some of my Pekin's eggs. I grabbed one, cracked it into a bowl....fertile! I grabbed another, cracked it open....fertile! Two more...fertile, fertile!
My husband practically had to scrape me up off the kitchen floor! I have 3 males and 3 female Pekins. Lucy, the oldest female is the only one laying right now. I expect Lela and Lulu to start any time. I watch daily as Lucy tries to entice her mate, Nibbles to mate with her.
She does the "Hussy Hustle" then runs to the pool, hops in and calls and calls him. I've never once seen him join her. Obviously he has when I wasn't looking! Maybe Nibbles is shy or has performance anxiety! lol
I'm so darn excited. I can't wait until my 8 year old grandson gets up in the morning so I can tell him. The Pekins are his!!!!
