Quote: There will be! Your daughter is adorable! She looks so proud.

Quote: My first two hens were older battery hens and they laid a lot of eggs for me over a number of years. I loved those girls!! We called them Rosie and Ruby. Today I found the first egg that I'm sure was laid by one of my barnevelders. It is the egg on the top right, darker than the other...

LOL, Liz! My EEs were shipped 4/9 so probably hatched 4/6 or 7. You'll have to do the math. I've got a 6 year old child making me nuts at the moment. Don't ask! My EE Vanessa laid her first egg yesterday. My first green one! These are all 6 that we collected this morning. I put hers next to the...

My first quail egg!!! Next to a not really all that big light brown chicken egg.

I just found my first quail egg!!! Man, is it pretty. I did take a picture but it didn't come out very good. I'll get another tomorrow to post. It's late now and I'm too tired to fuss. I'm so excited!!

I haven't had another that small. I think that the welsummer is laying normal sized eggs now. Not sure if they're as dark as some might expect.

Quote: We got one that looked like that every now and then from our old girls. Haven't seen any yet from the new girls. Just dark brown like your others. Still waiting for the rest of the 9 to lay their first!

I can't wait for my first duck eggs!!! How old are blue swedish and khaki campbells before they'll lay?? Oh and we ate two of Henrietta's eggs today. The yolks were sooooo orange! Been a while since we had a layer!

Congrats!!!

The eggon the right was in one of the nest boxes this morning. (The egg on the left is store bought.) I believe it's from one of my red stars, Henrietta. It was IN the nest box! Woohoo!!! Then I found that Sasha, my mutt chicken who's been laying for years, was in the nest box too. A different...
