Default Perestroika

Another Horsfields laid tonight It was here first time and she laid 1 big egg. The egg is 44mm X 32mm and weighs 25g. She had a bit of trouble getting it out, so I helped by pulling when she pushed.

Thanks Ian, Pete, Christian, Jo, Michelle, Kelly xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and Andrea

Pete 2 of the first 3 are developing nicely and be hatching soon. The next 3 one yolk has settled for sure, the other 2 might have, but no chalking yet and this egg the yolk has definately settled.
