And I came home for lunch and found this...

So tiny but I told her good girl and petted her

 

[BBZZZZTT]

My husband just sent me a picture of the egg haul today: 5/6.
The top right is blue!! Which means Belle laid her first egg!

I am beyond lucky about my Easter eggers egg colors. I got one green, one blue, and one olive. Perfect. What are the chances!!

They’re here!
My 2nd and last batch arrived about 30 minutes ago.
Seven babies all hatched just yesterday!
3 Speckled Sussex
2 Easter Eggers
1 Australorp
1 Silver Penciled Rock

The EE are so neat looking and completely opposite.
One is yellow with brown and black chipmunk stripes.
The other one is black with a dark brown head and kind of charcoal wings. Even her legs and feet are black.
I’m excited to see how she feathers out.

Blegh nevermind. I spoke too soon. XD
Once I got home and looked at the eggs in person the blue one is kidas green. The darker one is nalas olive egg 9.9
The picture must have made them look really light.

Those olive eggs are beautiful! Are your Welsummer eggs a little different everyday? Mine change up their speckles daily, in sunlight mine glisten like copper or brass. I honestly can’t tell the difference between most of my Ameraucana eggs and my green EE egg, Kida must have left out the tint when she was laying it!

Yeah the welsummers definitely change daily in terms of speckles.
I can't tell which egg is who's though.
Here are today's eggs lined up in actually good lighting. XD

Welsummer, wellsummer, Wyandotte, Nala, Kida

I'm calling Kidas egg green loosely... They look greenish to me. -shrugs-
I'm definitely hoping for a bluer one from Belle.

Also, Nala lays some tiny little eggs so far, for being the biggest chicken I have. XD

 

[Aunt Angus]

The eggs are GORGEOUS. All the chicks I ordered are brown layers. I'm a little *olive* with envy! Lol!

They’ll get bigger. Mine slowly grew day by day. Now they are medium large in size occasionally I get xxl double yolker! My darker Welsummer lays the darker eggs.

My babies are nine weeks old this week. It’s getting harder and harder to snap their weekly pictures now! They grow up so fast.
