Every egg I bring her she tucks it under her belly as if to say "come'on get in there."
Her name is Daphne. she has 5 big eggs and 3 bantam egg under her right now. from diff sources.
 


she hatched out these last 2 from the eggs above. 9/1/14

The small one below is my chicken egg will be EE bantam/Isbar both parents are "blue" if it is fertile, and the large is a double yolker from the above chicks farm. They do have mixed chickens but I am hoping for a Naked neck. Double yolkers usually don't make it, but this one looks to have enough room for 2 chicks. Mom hen is sitting on these due 22nd.

also..six that look like these...
.

and one like this.
