After two hours and 45 minutes we have a result!
It is pale minty blue green. It is 45 grams, and is the first egg laid in The Chicken Palace for a very long time.
She went a bit overboard on the calcium so it has a gritty texture from lots of tiny calcium deposits.
She was the only one who did not sing the egg song - both Eli and Bernie were shouting up a storm, and by the time she was done I was joining in too.
Taking a good picture with her and her egg was hard as the other two wanted to take credit for the egg and kept crowding in. And all Babs wanted to do was rehydrate.
But here goes - please celebrate with me!

Rosie update.

This will probably bite me in the butt and I will end up coming down with whatever she has but I slept with her last night. She is sicker this time around then with covid. I kept her propped up on several pillows and she woke up about every 3 hours gasping for breath. She finally went into a deep sleep about 5 and slept until 10. When she woke up she had a fever or 102. This is high for her as her normal is in the 97 range. It was very obvious she was not going to be able to go back to school tomorrow so I did what the dr last night told me to do. Call the clinic and if need be they would extend her excuse. Nope, would have had to bring her back in tonight to be re-evaluated. I asked about her chest x-rays, still nothing. Ok, yup that is not going to work for me so I called her primary care doctor and explained the situation. Yes he was fully booked today but told me to have her there in 20 minutes and he would squeeze her in. We knew she tested positive for strep last night, but that was the only test they did. They also told me her ears were clear when that was her chief complaint. He looked at them, ear infection in both ears. She also has bronchitis and she was also given a upper respiratory panel test that will be back by 9 tomorrow. The bronchitis might be pneumonia, he is calling to get a rush to read her x-rays and will call me back this afternoon. We discussed her treatment for when she tested positive for covid and he is not happy. All she was given was a steroid shot, albuterol inhaler and told to take musinex. They did not give any antibiotics stating she did not need them. His treatment protocol for covid is steroid shot plus a z-pack, decongestant and a steroid pack. She does not return to school until Monday. She is to stay on the omnicef, but also got a antibiotic shot and a steroid shot. A steroid pack she starts tomorrow, decongestant, new inhaler that has a steroid in it she takes every 12 hours plus ordering a nebulizer that we should be able to pick up this afternoon and ear drops. She is on the verge of being hospitalized. She still could be pending results of the x-ray and the respiratory panel. Right now she just ate and has fallen back asleep. I'm going to leave her alone for a hour or two then check her temperature again. I know she is contagious, but I will be staying with her until she starts improving.

I am so sorry to hear this but glad she is in the hands of a dr who is on top of it. I hope she recovers quickly.

Joining the egg party with two new layers today. Brownie laid her first chocolate egg and either snicker or doodle laid a blue-green egg.

The four we got today I washed to see the colors so they are the shiny ones in the basket.
