Our first egg from the newbies! Look at this wee little egg....

I knew the first egg was going to be small but....this is REALLY SMALL. Nothing like what I was expecting!



Quarter, pullet egg, 3year old Gold Star egg

It's cute! Congratulations and don't eat that all at one time.

Whoa! That took a lot of work!

 

[Kittyf]

It's darling - aren't you proud of her? And wait until she really gets going! Congrats!

I bet thats a 'fart' egg Did it have a yolk?

 

[Anna_MN]

I haven't cracked it open yet- I am tempted though. All my new girls are 18 weeks old so it wouldn't be absurd for one of them to have laid. I have buff orpingtons, columbian wyandottes, and easter eggers that age. Otherwise I have 14 week old cuckoo marans, blue andalusians, and welsummers.

 

[Simmonsfunnyfrm]

Well it's very nice to start getting them at that age. I had a hen that didn't lay til 8 months... what are your blue andalusians like? I think they're pretty but don't know about temperament, etc.

 

[Anna_MN]

My Blue's are a little flighty but they are good foragers. I also think they are quite beautiful. I would definitely recommend them.

 

[Anna_MN]

I cracked it open, and there was a yolk!

How strange! Well then, that was one cute little pullet egg
