I have had two araucana eggs this week. Lovely olivey green coloured shells.
Also our dwarf hen has laid two eggs this week. We are laughing because her name is Apricot Chicken, and she laid pale apricot/pinky coloured eggs.....
The legbar egg is full sized as they have been laying for a while now. The araucanas should get bigger as they develop. Am hoping that Apricot's eggs don't get any bigger as they are already huge in comparison to her tiny body! She is smaller than a bantam, but her eggs are much bigger than bantam eggs.
We have had a glorious weekend of sunshine. The lawns have had their first mow of the year, and everything has just sprung to life.
I have bulbs forcing their way through the ground everywhere, and pink and white violets flowering under the trees in the orchard. My daffodils are looking splendid in teh sunshine. Bright and gorgeous and they scream "springtime".
Must get out and take some photos next week to capture it all.
