Jackpot! I got 1 fairy egg this morning and 7 normal size eggs this afternoon from 8 ladies. Three were in a single nest box (they have 6 nest boxes) and 4 were in the goat house. My son suggested the goats may be laying eggs from all the chicken feed they eat lol

Ooh, be careful with the goats eating the chicken feed. It can possibly cause bloat if they eat too much. I had goats several years ago.They were crazy for chicken food... and willow trees, rose bushes, aspen trees. Basically anything I didn't want them eating. I had my hands full with those two wild girls.

6 today! I slightly cracked one opening the gate, but as I walked inside my son asked for eggs so I used that one up right away, no waste!

4 today. I'd get a lot more eggs if my ladies would stop being broody. As soon as I break one, 2 more take her place.

My rooster keeps them in line...most of the time. I don't know what he did to them but they run when they see him coming lol

I got 1!!!! My first one!!! I don’t know who it came from but it had to be one of the olive Eggers. My flock is just over 19 weeks old and finally got the first one.

CONGRATULATIONS! The first egg is such a special event! And a beautiful shade of green!

We blew out each of our hens first eggs, and put their name and date laid on them to save.

Congratulations!! First eggs are always exciting, even if you've had chickens for decades!
