I've been feeling near the back of my hens tummy for the past few days now wondering whenI was going to start feeling an egg forming. Last night when I felt her I *thought* I felt something solid but I wasnt sure. I felt her again today and FOR SURE theres an egg in her pelvic area almost ready to come out! I assume she'll lay it this late evening. I AM ESTATIC!!! I hope the others start soon!
Will post a picture of my first pullet coturnix egg (this is my first egg from my own youngsters all my other eggs were from a breeder I got birds from who were already laying when I got them).
It's from Big Berthas daughter, and the sire *im hatching the egg* is Ike as he's the only one that sucessfully bred any of the hens. Enceno I put outside because he was driving hubby insane lol! So this will be a jumbo brown x tuxedo chick if it hatches!
heres her eggie finnally! She layed it at 10 pm :
HUGE for being a pullet egg:
her egg by a button quail egg:
Yay Henny Penny!!!! Third generation on the way!
