I've gotten so used to walking past the "blonde chicken" pen (buff chantecler trio, plus my lone remaining ISA Brown who is laying internally and hasn't produced an egg since August or so), I almost didn't notice when there were 2 eggs in the nestbox there this morning!
I am fairly certain they are from the chantecler pullets - hatched May 1, not laid a *thing* til now, lazy buggers! - since they don't look like Maryanne's eggs and honestly I don't expect her to lay anything again let alone two in one day. (They were both warm). Whereas the chanteclers ("Friendly" and "Ladder", as per my then-3-yr-old) are about DUE, darnit!
Of course now this means I *really really* am getting too many eggs and need to find people on whom to offload them on a regular basis <g>
Just wanted to say Woo Hoo for Friendly and Ladder, since nobody here in real life would understand
