It's a happy day here in New Orleans. I got my first ever egg!!!

It's from my blue hen and black roo Silkies. At least I think the black roo is the daddy. I also have a pair of cuckoo Polish bantams and I saw that roo with my Silkie hen a couple days ago.
Anyway, here are some pictures for you.

Isn't it pretty for a 1st egg?

Here's mom - Stormey


and dad - Elvis (from Bobbi Porto's Nitro)


So here's a question I have. What do you do with your first egg? Do you try to hatch it or eat it? I'm not sure she's broody yet. I have the egg sitting in the house at room temp for now.

Congratulations! I usually don't hatch the first eggs when my pullets start to lay - I like to wait until they get a bit bigger, but I'm not sure if that applies to bantam breeds or not.

Congrats on your first egg! You should buy a glass case for it and put it on the shelf. :p

What a beautiful egg! Congratulations! PS I ate mine after it had posed for pics.

Thanks! You would think I laid it myself as excited as I am about it.
