That is awesome!!!! Looks like an am egg, right?

X 2 -

Congrats on the first blue egg! First eggs are the best.

it's either am or legbar, I haven't separated them yet. It weighs 39 grams. I don't know how to tell the difference between the eggs.

In mine the Legbars tend to be a lot more glossy than the Am's, paler but more blue, and more rounded than egg shaped... Am eggs might be slightly greenish, more matte than glossy and can tell pointy end easier...

My Legbars eggs are the same way. Very round, more glossy than the others, and surprisingly heavier than they look. Hope I get a few Legbar mixes to hatch in a few weeks!

Oh, does that change at 1:45 ?

ETA: Is that really a raft, or just the dinghy from the ark?

Yep, since they're rounder they don't visually look as big, but they're comparable in size...

This one must be an am, then.

Looks like it, but can't be too sure with first eggs either, lol...

That's true. May change a bit as her system gets regulated.

So I go out to the coop and notice my EE Osprey (the one with a beard) coming out of the nest box. I pull the egg and realize that all the EE eggs in the incubator are not hers, they are Betty's (clean faced)- the eggs are both green but have always looked slightly different.

Took all I had not to stick it in the incubator with the others, and I put it in the fridge instead..

Nice thing is that I'll know who the mom is if any of these EE/Orloffs hatch. Will collect some from Osprey for the Easter HAL.
