I got 2 and 1 half an egg (it was a no shell egg). Here is a pic of the 2 good ones. well 1 good and 1 odd. They came from my 6 mo. old dominique pullets
I got a surprise. 2 whole eggs, 3 broken eggs / 19 girls plus 1 thief caught in the hen house. Now I know why my egg count has been so low, the skunk has been eating them all. I'll have the last laugh on him when I catch him soon and haul him off to the mountains!

Oh my gosh, a friend of mine has a skunk coming into her henhouse stealing her eggs. The way she found out was she came home one afternoon and went out to see her chickens and the skunk came sauntering out of the henhouse, stopped at the threshhold, looked up at her then back at the henhouse, shook it's head then walked off as calm as could be. She was going to try to fix it so it couldn't get in but I don't know if that ever worked out or not!
Shocked by the fact my girls only cranked out 4 eggs yesterday! I have been getting 6 or 7 everyday for months. I am waiting now to pick the eggs up for today.
