first egg?

[craftychicken]

Here is the first "egg" from our new flock of RIRs.
It looks like just a yolk with a gangly bit - no shell. She just laid it on the ground out in the open too, that's why its all dirty.

First egg! Looks like she's still trying to figure it all out.

That's not uncommon for a first egg---I betcha she'll pick up a bit.

time to mix in layer feed and oyster shells

I also have a new group of RIRs. Can you tell me how old they were when they started laying? I'm anxiously awaiting my first egg.

 

[craftychicken]

they are just about 6 months old.
