October 7, 200816 yr Author Thats crazy!!! Nine eggs??? Are they all fertile??? Poor mum!!! Steel is still looking great with or without spots... Probably...all the first batch of nine were. Most of them in the nestbox look fertile and others too soon to tell yet. Funny thing I have NEVER seen this pair mating. They must get up to hanky panky earlier in the day Steels albino hen has laid her first egg. Edited October 7, 200816 yr by KAZ
October 7, 200816 yr Author WOW!!! Must admit Elly I am surprised she did it twice in a row. Thought the first time was because she was "new" at it
October 8, 200816 yr well done on your results. Â Wow, steel is breeding. i remember when he was born. I remember his little twin. Doesn't time fly. Â Some of those 9 eggs will be just the right age for me to take home when i get to Perth in january. What a tremendous coincidence!!!!!
