I have a cool story!

I am thinning out some hens and I have 5 EE girls and one of them lays the most pretty Olive colored egg. I want her to stay and the others to go. So I stuck them all into little pens to watch and wait and see who laid the Olive egg. I went in and out all morning and nothing. Then at daycare nap time, (my break time

) I went into the coop and told the girls if they would hurry up and lay their eggs then they could get free and go play. I am not kidding that one of them stood up and started pushing and pushing and out plopped the most pretty Olive colored egg!!!! I found my girl and I got to watch an egg being laid for the first time ever!!!!! IT was so cool. She was meant to stay here for sure.

Thats so neat, I got to watch one of my hens lay her egg a couple years ago. Cool experience for sure.

What are the chances that it was the Oliver Egger that I have been looking for that laid an egg right in front of me.
