Our GT was showing signs of laying today, but she did a great job of covering the nest. Time will tell but I think she did lay an egg. Yippee (I think)

Good Luck Taz - I'm sure she'll give you more than mine.
GTs having a better year on here with the number of nests for a change.

Mr GT just brought Mrs GT two tasty morsels before she settles down on her two eggs.
He's a good boy 😊

How are your GT’s doing Taz? Hi Amanda, They seem to be doing well, but I'm remaining a little nonchalant because we have had failures of some kind or another the last 4 or 5 years now. Trying to stay positive though. Looks like they have 4 eggs, not able to record this year though so very few good photos to show you all. Taz x

Mrs GT has now layed 5 eggs. She was late rising today and did not move from her nest cup until she had received two treats from Mr GT. She then left the box at about 07:15 which is very late for her. I'm wondering if she is getting ready to incubate?

She might lay her sixth tomorrow and start incubating for you Taz, You'll have to see what tomorrow brings! Fingers crossed no drama this year for you!

Fingers crossed Paul, that's what I am thinking too. Interestingly though, I have just looked at last years diary i had been keeping and she started laying on exactly the same date.
I'm still apprehensive, but very excited too.

I think Mrs GT may settle with 7 eggs, she has 6 at the moment, and has been incubating most (but not all) of the day. I'm guessing she will lay her 7th tomorrow and start incubating properly. We shall see
