Countdown To Eggs! For June hatches 😊

[Chickeeaholic]

My June 2022 chicks laid their first eggs!!
I suspected one of the three laid an egg in mid-Dec but could never pin down which one exactly. Well, my little lemon cuckoo Niederrhieners, Daisy and Donald (Daisy is lemon yellow-Donald clearly NOT) laid two very different eggs which I witnessed them exiting the nest and the eggs were still wet—Donald laid a pale cream egg ( the smaller of the two in carton) and Daisy laid a matte light brown with heavy bloom (in hand pic). My final June girl, a sweet but camera shy bielefelder named Daphne laid her first rich brown speckled egg just after Christmas, obvious pullet egg (top right egg in carton). All weighed about 35-45g. Cute lil eggs and I am so proud of my girls

Congratulations!!

I love a good color variety!

my June pullet Dyffryn started laying on 3rd Dec, and has been laying nice brown eggs steadily since

Most of my eggs are from May 22 babies. Egg on top with blood is a first egg.

What breed of yours lays the pink egg? It’s very pretty

First Olive egg today! That makes 6 of 10 of the June babies laying!

Oooh, nice color!


Nothing from mine yet, although Athena has started squatting now, so that's a promising sign, right?

My egg came about a week after I noticed her squatting. So hopefully soon for you!

That's been my experience as well, but I definitely was not expecting an egg from any of them just yet, much less Athena! This morning, though, she is bawk-awk-awking away and checking out the nests, so she may just lay her first egg today!!

Today’s eggs. We missed picking up last night which is why we got so many today. The blue egg is new.

Some of my favorite eggs: pink and speckled.
