Egg shapes

Yesterday Snow laid her second egg this year, two days after her first one. It was long and torpedo shaped. We have always said that there is no mistaking Snow’s eggs because they have a very distinct shape.

Red laid today, also two days after her last egg. Red has spells of laying every other day and then she slows down again. She may continue to lay every other day when we get into spring.

Last year Snow laid every other day most of the time and sometimes two days running in between so she probably will again once she gets into her stride. She was a good layer last year.

It is lovely having our own eggs again and I am sure there will be more girls laying soon.
