Egg Collection

We've got 5 chooks trying to take over Teralbah, which including 4 Croad Langshan black hens who provide us numerous eggs with their young rooster, Roy Boy II (protege of Roy Boy). Don't worry, there will be more chicks running around later this year... and we might obtain a few more chooks to bring up the number of eggs we get here. Ours are more like autumn layers so we are still getting an egg every day or two.

There once was a very good mummy
Who definitely wasn't a dummy
She liked to read books
And had lots of chooks
And chocolate to fill up her tummy.
