The Good Life = 34 eggs
I'm amazed - we've had the ex-batts for only 3 weeks, and they have already hit over 30 eggs. They are definitely getting better in taste, and yolks are getting a bit oranger - but they are still not eating all the treats. They quite liked the greens yesterday - but corn and banana they just look at me quizically as in "why on earth have you fed us this"? Oh - and yesterday was our first 3 egg day - heres to many more!

As you can see from the photo - they are getting a bit more cheeky. The bucket was full of growers mash - and they just couldn't wait!
