How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[Texag87]

One! Our Jumbo Pekin layed her very first egg today, and as duck owners it was our first egg, too!

Congratulations. I am curious as to how much bigger Jumbo eggs are compared to regular Pekins.

You haven’t ever seen an egg tree?

Nope

It’s a spiral shaped thing to keep on the kitchen counter for egg storage. I put eggs there as soon as I bring them in. I keep at least 8 in it for legacy eggs at all times. When it gets full the bottom ones go into cartons and into the fridge. We have been very lucky and not needed the legacy eggs.

Huh, I might need one

Even though it’s not a duck egg...

I got my first OLIVE EGG!!!!!!!

I was actually surprised because the egg seemed so much smaller than I’ve seen in photos

My new duck layers started off small and they got bigger over several weeks, my older duck still lays the biggest egg, but the others have mostly caught up size wise. I’m sure yours will get bigger as well

Holy poop how many fowl do you have?

In total? My calculator is broke so maybe around 50 birds in 4 species.
