This morning I heard music to my ears! The egg song! Sure enough when I checked the was a fresh egg in the nest box. Excited I congratulationed her, collected the egg, took pictures, showed my husband, called my parents all the things you would expect from a first time chicken owner when I realized I hadn't prepared her box. But when I went to clean it out there was another egg! I was so excited my little Coq Au Vin had her second egg. I was sure it was hers because my 3 other chickens turned out to be roos. I congratulations her again and went on to then my garden when a little while later my boys starting crowing like crazy taking turn running in and out of the coop. So I checked again. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it happen for myself but there was a 3rd egg. Has anyone ever heard of a hen laying 3 eggs on her 1st day! I know it won't always be like this but I'm curious as to why and how it could happen. She is an Americana or Easter Egger and 19 weeks today.
