It's sooooo hard to be patient.

One of my California Whites has a very red and large comb. The other 2 are still pink. Will it be today?????????

For sure a BO, mine layed for 3 days straight then took a day off and three again. Congrats on your first egg!

Congratulations on your first egg. It's so egg-citing to get that first egg. Actually I'm excited every time I go out to collect the eggs. In the beginning don't despair, more eggs will come but sometimes they may not lay another egg for a couple of days or so while their bodies are adjusting. Good luck and have fun.

Don't get too worked up about it... some breeds start that early, some at 20 weeks... some at 24 weeks... i had my silkies not start until 26 weeks and 2 after 30 weeks. It is not a guarentee when they give you a round about date!

Don't worry, when you get your first one you are going to forgive them for taking forever!!!!
