Infamous
Famous for all the wrong reasons at the local stock feed store, (Andrews in Sydney Rd, Coburg) I was beginning to despair that my four bantams would ever lay an egg! At ten months not only had they never laid but just to add insult to injury it looked as if one was going broody on me. Damn cheek I thought, all things considered. Lucky for them they are too small for the pot!
All is forgiven though as the recent onset of spring-ish weather has set two of them off simultaneously. We now get two eggs every second day. Hopefully the other two will soon follow suit and we'll have a full complemnt of layers! Maybe it was the broccoli?
