From Prettie, my first chicken, in July 2004

First one came just after July 4th, and didn't even register as "small" on my egg scale!

Where I find them... (and yes, the golfballs worked!)

Using up the store-bought farm eggs (the lower five) and filling in with my own! I've since filled this carton twice!

I think collecting eggs is one of my favorite daily chores!

Oh, and some of my girls started around 17/18 weeks, and the rest were laying by 24. And yes, they've been on layer from roughly 17 weeks.

Our first eggs came on a 14 degree F day...brrrr So exciting! Our ladies are just over 6 months old (183 Days). I’m not sure which 2 did the laying, but we are happy to have some eggs!

Got my first "fart" egg about 3 days ago, then a real shelled egg, then one more. I think just one of my girls is laying these, but it's weird. I have 3 sex-links all the same age. Lucy LOOKS the most mature, with bright red comb. Ethyl's comb not so big or bright. Goldie's comb very pale. I didn't see WHO laid the egg I assumed it was Lucy, but Ethyl sure was singing that egg song!

These are my very first eggs as of 8/6/07 my girls were 19 weeks old they will be 20 wks old tomorrow

Here are some of the girls i don't know which ones laid them

We found our first egg today! Maybe from our Golden Comet, Goldilocks or our Silver laced Wyandotte, Nugget. We made the egg boxes accessible and then were putting some knobs on the egg doors a few hours later and found another one! Super egg-citing day!

I can't tell you just how excited I was to open the lid to the nesting box (just as I had done every day for weeks!) and found our first EGG! I've been waiting my whole life for that moment! I always wanted a Farm and I dreamed of one day having my very own Hens. Nothing prepared me for the elation I felt today! I still feel it!!! Is this normal??? Lol it's that proverbial kid at Christmas Joy! Pure Bliss! I feel Proud! Like I laid it myself! HAHAHAH it's silly but Chickens make me Happy and today was a red letter day for sure! I can't wait to run out and check the coop in the morning!
