those naughty hens

Were pretending they has stopped laying now we are well past the Summer Solstice. No "I'm gonna lay a cackleberry noises" and the frantic rushing around that goes with telling the whole of Leichhardt that an egg is happening.
But I kept looking at  a couple of them thinking  they must be laying them somewhere. Found them amid the thorns of a rose bush at their back gate. And yes they are all still fit to eat, they passed the sink test!
