She set the bar very high for both of us.

I was laughing today, @MaryJanet gets 2 pullets, I top her and get 3, you top me, and the @Kris5902 sets a billion eggs to tops us all combined!

Luckily the lot here save all that getting business. However, one just doesn't know exactly what one is going to end up with.

Is this a pain posture?

Chickie reminds me of Sandy in her pain posture photo. She’s still napping a lot, she’ll stick her head under her wing, both standing and sitting. Or is her tail down because she’s balancing? She’ll nap, then go and have a dig in the garden. She’s pretty light when I pick her up, but no more than usual.

Sometimes the hens here look as if they are in some degree of discomfort. It seems to be related to making an egg.

Meal worms buy lots of forgiveness

A bit like chocolate though, too much fat.

Much as I hate to interupt the Nationalism with a fact, Scottish are Irish. It's movement of the Irish to Scotland that brought about the clans, kilts (I've got one somewhere) etc.
I'm a Pict apparently.View attachment 2026716

With no intention to offend any of you Celts, I am sure for the rest of us, this passage from one of my long time favorites will clear everything up nicely:
“The Scots (originally Irish, but by now Scotch) were at this time inhabiting Ireland, having driven the Irish (Picts) out of Scotland; while the Picts (originally Scots) were now Irish (living in brackets) and vice versa. It is essential to keep these distinctions clearly in mind (and verce visa).”

Thank you. I think so. I have waited a long time for these beauties.

She completely emptied the nesting boxes.
Everything got tossed out.​

So she likes her box like Aurora does, clean and empty. That is one pretty egg. Congratulations!
