First Decent Egg From Ex-Battery Hen
Ex-battery hen egg (left) compared with shop bought free-range egg.
Our ex-battery hens have laid us a decent egg or two after just a few days in their new coop. This photo shows a camparison between our hen's egg and a shop-bought free-range one. Maybe after some more time, grit(crushed oyster shells), vitamins, greens and exercise from our garden, our chucks might produce a darker coloured egg.
Earlier attempts at egg laying produced eggs with very thin shells or even one with no shell at all.
