The one OE pullet that I hatched from your eggs earlier this year (the rest got snatched by a skunk earlier this year he ) laid me some beautimous colored olive eggs in the last 3 days celebrate She finally decided it was time... and promptly picked a corner in the goat shed thlau I went in to feed the goats Monday afternoon, and there was the purtiest green egg I've ever seen!!! celebrate Today, I even caught her in the act, and got to watch her grumble and push lau Here is her 3rd egg, next to a 1yo hens large brown egg. wee I can only hope my home brewed OE pullets lay as green an egg as this girl.

Beautiful egg!  Congrats!

Having an Icelandic in the coop is like having a 2 year old in the house - they are into everything and don't follow the rules.

I have zero chicken willpower.
