    First Egg!!!

    tonight I go to shut up my chickens and see this little beauty in the corner of the roosting box! Time for those nest boxes I guess... Based on Maturity and color I’m betting on my Mrs Marans! The larger one is from one of the Pullets the farm bought last summer for size and color comparison. So...

    First Egg On My Birthday!

    My birthday was 2/26. One of my sapphire gems had been making these honking noises looking very impatient days before running around so I looked into that and found out it could take a week for her to lay after she starts making those noises so I wasn’t expecting Her to lay one so soon but I put...

    First Egg !!!

    Hi Friends! Just looked into the duck-house and found our first egg. No idea who laid it, my primary suspect is Katharina because she's the largest duck, Curiosity and NoName are smaller. One healthy egg, perfect size, a little larger than a chicken egg from the store: Now we're talking...

    First Eggs QUAILS

    So yesterday I received 2 lovely but small quails eggs for the first time! So far today, I still haven't received any. Is it normal for Japanese quails to miss a day after their first egg? If so, is it just one day or can it last a while? Thanks :)

    First Egg! Finally! Now who comes next?

    First timer here! Our pullets (1 RIR, 1BA, 1GLW, 1SS, 1BR) are 22-23 weeks and we just got our first egg this morning from the black australorp! We're so excited - had to share. Any predictions on who will follow and how long we'll have to wait? The suspense is killing me!!!

    First egg!!

    Hello! My 22 week old buff orpington Sunny D laid her first egg today! My Danish brown leghorn Sprinkles (23 weeks old) has been practicing the art of the squat for days and still no egg. Aside from layer feed is there anything I should supplement their diets with?

    My Golden Comets. We got our first egg yesterday!

    Hi there! I’m in my first year of owning three awesome Golden Comets, Rose, Coop and R2-D2.(can you tell we let the kids name them? Haha.) We got them the weekend after Easter, and they’re all the same age, but I’m a bit confused. I’ve recently noticed that Rose has a nice sized red comb...

    Hen's First Egg (and Mine)

    My Hen Morty laid her first egg. I've never raised chickens so this was all new to me! Before she laid her egg, I notice she was more chattier than usual. She would pace around trying to find a nook to lay her egg. She laid her first egg on top of this small storage cube I keep outside. Luckily...

    What a wonderful surprise we found this morning… After hearing what Brie and I could have sworn was the sound of a cockerel chick attempting his first crow, we went running over to Nellie’s cage to see if she was alright! We knew there were no roosters in the house, so could not figure out what...
