My first egg! My pullets decided to lay! PIC

[SpeckledPullet]

I just KNEW when I wormed them they'd decide to finally start laying. AND THEY DID! Or, someone did. I have no idea who of the 4 girls layed this pretty light brown egg. It is perfectly shaped, too. In the pic, it is net to a large store bought egg. My pullets range from 6 months to 9 months. In the past week, I have noticed two of my 7 month old girls have starting getting very red wattles. My eldest, the 9 month old, has already had red wattles and a small red comb. I wonder if she did it?

Thank you!

I am disappointed, though. No egg today. Oh well. Let's hope she will lay again soon.

Congrats! You can still blow it out and save the "first egg" shell! I think it takes them a while to settle into the routine of laying, I'd guess even more so when they start in the winter time.
