It was so cool to open the nest box lid and find it in there!!!

Now I am looking forward to see what happens tomorrow. And in a few more weeks I should have two more girls ready to start laying woot woot
YAHOO!!!!!!!!YIPEE!!!!!! CONGRATS, Since I'm not 9mos pregnant, i think i'm enjoying this close to as much as when my sons were born!
 
I started getting eggs from my Red Sexlink around 20 weeks I believe. At least I think it's her. She gets kind of neurotic when I start monkeying around the nest box, and then after I'm done she always goes to look for the egg. Her and one of my RIRs are both squatting when I approach them though, so who knows. :) Those two are the biggest and most dominant. So I guess it makes sense that they'd start laying first. 8 more ladies the go. The Barred Rock might be next, even though they're younger. They seemed to plump up really quickly.
