I got my first egg yesterday! I felt really bad. All our girls and our boy were 19 weeks wednesday. I haven't gotten time to build them nesting boxes. I was under the impression that if they are gonna lay they will lay even without a nest box. But wed. I went ahead and made a temporary box and added 2 fake eggs. Imagine my surprise when i found a perfectly shaped, but small egg, the next morning
We have 3 buff orpingtons, 3 rhode island reds, 2 easter eggers, and a male and female pair of partridge wyandotte bantams.
The color of the egg doesn't show up in pics but it has a blue/green tint. So although they all have bright red combs and wattles, and several are squatting when approached, I believe the egg is from an EE.
The lil cockerel found his crow a couple weeks ago. It cracks me up to hear such a big sound out of the lil guy! He is trying his best to mate every one of the girls. Also fun to watch as the big girls shake him off and seem annoyed!
I will try to post a pic of the egg next to a store bought large white egg.. No eggs today.
