Yeah they are freaking adorable, especially when they run behind their mother :)

Random info of the day, in Greece a duck goes "pa" not "quack" :p

lol these aren't for eating. Mostly they're sable pout and pekins. They're for laying and selling fertilised eggs for a tidy steady profit.

So you've never kept the eggs...to eat without them fertilized? I can assume they'd taste good if they're fresh.

oh yes we have about 20 laying chickens, until you've eaten a TRUE free range egg that was hatched under an hour from when you eat it, you don't know how good egg can be! None of the chicks are layers though (afaik) we dont sell eating eggs (just give them away to friends) and so 10-20 eggs/day is plenty

Hear hear. And seeing a chicken actually pooping one out is pretty fascinating. Poor animals!

So cute!

My parents have a couple of hens just to get eggs for themselves. My son loves going to find eggs with Grandad when we visit.

PS I notice there have been no comments on your Northern English accents ;)

It was very much like my GF giving birth to our daughter. And atleast she doesn't have to do that almost every day ;)

see, I don't see those as even a little similar... one would be the birth of my son/daughter... the other would be the birth of my dinner... big difference in "specialness"
