... but she got very frantic this afternoon pacing around and then ran into the coop, hopped in a nest box and BAM!

That is what good girls do! Go Zoingo...

Same! I saved three first eggs from my flock. (The rest started laying when I wasn’t there.) View attachment 2831864

Nice!!! Love the variety. How long have they been laying? My EE eggs are still quite small. Maybe a med size egg? Or may be smaller

My first layer has always laid the smallest eggs of the three. Occasionally hers are large sized (57 grams+), but more often in the 50-55 gram range.

Beautiful eggs! What kind of chicken is miss Pepper? I love those speckles!

Zoingo is a beautiful girl! Congrats on first egg!

Zoingo laid a massive(for her so far...) egg this morning. Then... I finally cracked her Day 2 egg today for breakfast and it was a double yolker!

Thank you! I hope she tells the other girls to join the egg train

She’s a Dominique.
My other Dom does not lay them with speckles though.

That's so interesting... its like her own seal of approval/trademark. Neat that it's easy to tell which ones are hers!
