Johanna hatched only 6 chicks from her 10 eggs but they are all lovely yellow fluffy balls.
Milly has finally started laying. She is laying a lovely round egg in the mulch pile. There are too many feisty, clucky chooks near the nest boxes so I don't blame her for finding somewhere more peaceful. I'm collecting her eggs even if it will be a late hatching - pure Greg Milligan descendants.

This last year we have had John go to a new home, Gregory arrive from Greg Milligan in NSW and he is a stunner. We also lost a couple of hens to a mystery illness. We are breeding wildly so we'll have some pullets for Christmas:
Georgina has 7 chicks born 3 weeks ago Harriet has 6 chicks born 2 weeks ago Isabelle has 6 chicks born 2 weeks ago Johanna is sitting on 10 eggs due this weekend Maryanne is sitting on 10 eggs due a couple of days later. it is chick crazy with everyone coming into the kitchen on cold nights. |
