It was very exciting. Here's a picture of the first one. <a href="https://www.backyardchickens.com/gallery/image/view/id/4894467/album/6068999"><img src="https://www.backyardchickens.com/image/id/6051724/width/400/flags/LL"></a> It's way darker than the picture showed and the second one was even darker. She is nine months old and wasn't in anybody's hurry to lay an egg. Silly girl. We are still waiting on the last of our pullets to lay...
