Gladys laid her first egg today!!!

My 5/6 month old Easter Egger pullet, Gladys, laid her first egg today!!! These tiny eggs are so cute, though Gladys's egg is just slightly smaller than my old hen Henryetta's egg.

These few months I have raised her it was fun wondering what color egg she would lay.....would it be blue, pink, cream, or some other shade in between, well there's no more wondering..... her egg today is a light green, so looks like I got a green egg laying Easter Egger. I feel like a kid at Christmas!!! Now I have cream from the old hen and soft green from Gladys!!! I can't wait to see what colors my younger 2 EE chicks lay when they start in a month or so.

Congratulations! First eggs are magical. Even more so when you don't know what color they'll be.

Thanks, it really did feel like Christmas!!! Wouldn't it be nice if all my bullets laid a different color egg so I would know who lays what.

Thanks, perhaps I will get lucky and all my bullets will lay a different color. Would make it so nice to tell who it is if someone stops laying.

That's what I hope for the other 2 of mine

That's so cool! I didn't know about Easter Eggers, but if I ever get more chicks, I'm going to get a couple of those breeds! It would be fun to have such beautiful eggs.
