All is Rosie

The last few days Matilda and Bizzy Lizzy have really gotten into the swing of egg-laying.  It's amazing how proficient they are, despite it being their very first ever egg-laying season.  Such little miracles.
And then today... for the first time ever... we have three eggs!!!!
We thought Rosie was acting all nesty and now she is a layer too!
Our three layers - we're so proud of them!

She laid us a wee, long, pale brown egg on the ground amongst the kicked up moss, beneath their ramp.  Funny little Rosie.  Now she'll have to learn where the real nests are that the other girls use.  I'm sure she'll get the hang of it soon, as the other two worked it out despite no other hens showing them the way.

Our poorly hen Didee was looking a bit better today too.

Aaah, all is looking Rosie in the hen house today!
