Countdown To Eggs! For June hatches 😊

[BarnyardChaos]

I honestly don't know if the egg on the right is from one of my May (21st) or June (18th & 20th) babies. But it IS eggciting to see how many pullet eggs are in the basket each day!!! Yay girls, doing great!

Yay! Do you know which one? (Breed?)

They are all Black Australorps, same age. I can tell you who I think it was, but that won't help you, lol...either Chowder or Primrose

Layer number 2 started today! McMurray Ameraucana (Easter Egger but she actually looks pure!)

I have to say…the McM chicks are 2-3 weeks younger than the rest of my girls, but were the first two to start laying!

Here it is, it actually looks much brighter blue than in the pic under my kitchen lights:

So I was wrong…just found two very dirty blue eggs UNDER my coop!

So my Ameraucana must have started Nov 30th, but didn’t figure out the nest box until Dec 2nd!

Luckily I am small enough to squat under the 2ft of space to reach them. I was watching the girls dust bath and noticed something blue next to my Brahma…

She’s such a quiet and drama free girl I didn’t even realize she started! I think the whole neighborhood knows when my Welsummer is getting ready to lay…BAAAAWWWWK BAAAAWWWWK

We got 18 plus 1chicks on Oct 3rd. so got a little time to wait. My question is when a chicken starts to lay how long will it take her to be producing the normal size egg for their breed? So far it is looking like we may have a couple of roosters plus the extra one that I think is a Golden Wyandotte Roo in our order. Ordered from McMurry (6 Buff Orrington, 6 Barred rock, & 6 Delaware) Was very happy with the company and my order. First time I have ordered chicks online.

I have five pullets born on June 13th. My Blue Copper Marans started laying five weeks ago. The other four are still holding out. I noticed today that their combs are getting almost as red as the BCM. I hope someone else starts soon!

That depends…last year our sapphire gem was at large eggs in just a few days! Some of the girls took a few weeks to get to full size!
