As it’s coming up to two years since we got them, the chickens have started doing some strange things.

They haven’t been quite as productive this year as they were in their first year – which is to be expected – as they finally got round to all moulting in the last four months, and Gladys in particular has been a broody old cow this year.

All the same, the egg I found last night was notable…

Todays egg, on the right

That’s a normal-sized egg on the left, and the tiny example left yesterday. Very strange. I haven’t yet opened it up to see if it’s perfectly formed inside, though.
