Can I eat the first eggs I get?

But that means you can still eat the insides... scrambled.

I blew out each "first egg" from my different pullets, saving them until I had about 3 from each, marking the later ones. That way I had a perfect, unmarked egg shell to preserve. Luckily, they are different breeds and matured at different rates. Shirley the Welsummer DID lay her first egg the same day as Ellen the bantam lavender Cochin, but I was still able to tell which egg belonged to which pullet.

Nothing wrong with first eggs. I ses this question asked a lot - there must be some old wives' tales floating around out there to give people the impression that a pullet egg isn't fit for eating.

I did read something about medicated feed. Is there something with that type of feed that means you should not eat them?
