We have three hens laying! Mollie(molls) was the first, she has laid if I remember correctly 12 eggs now, closely followed by Hettie(spaghetti) with 6 and Aurelia laid the day before yesterday a 60g egg which is good for a first egg. However, today, Aurelia laid a 72g egg! Wow .... we were so pleased and so was she, she sang very loudly afterwards! Gave her a grape for that contribution.

I wish I could show the video's but I can't get them up as it says they are too big. Made a video of Aurelia looking for somewhere to lay for the first time and then her singing the egg song afterwards! It is a work in progress, I will get the video's up somehow, sooner or later!

I am also pleased to say that so far, the chooks are using both nest boxes, it's awful when they have to queue for one!!!

I can have eggs (but I don't eat them often) it's just the milk and cheese I am not eating currently.

I did say "almost" vegan..

Of course some other products have minor traces of dairy in them too and I can't avoid those or I'd eat nothing!

We are not Vets, Avian or otherwise. If you have any serious doubts about your budgies' health an appointment with an Avian vet should always be your first point of call.
