Well, my spoiled birchen modern game hen, whom I have named Twiggy, layed her first egg today!

She is like my little pocket pet. She squawks and squawks until she gets some attention. We have been getting eggs from all of our other 50 ish chickens, but it feels way different when you are more connected to the bird. We also got our first blue egg. We have two silkieXamericauna sisters and we think the egg came from them. We get green, brown, orangish, white, and pale colors, so now its pretty neat to get a blue one.
