Our PR pullet laid her first two eggs! We're so proud of her. One right after the other and only a day apart. There slightly pinkish tan, narrow and medium size (a little smaller than I expected for PR).
Ok. Now what do I do? Let her cherish them? Or collect them for breakfast?
If I decide collect them for breakfast, then I have a question:
She just started recently on layer pellets and before was eating growth crumple (southern states brand). Someone told me that the growth feed is usually medicated (although it doesn't say that anywhere on the bag) and that one probably wouldn't want to eat the eggs if the chicken was on a medicated feed.
Is this really a problem with the brand feed she was on? If so, then how long does she need to be off of that feed before her eggs are ok?
Regarding the cherishing part, we did take the first egg inside for a bit, but she kept circling her nest and looking for it. So we put it back and she laid another one next to it. She seems broodily content now.
