Dottie, the free chick I was given at the local feed store last year (and which is STILL living in the house because of cold weather and poor social skills) laid her first egg today. She was the last of the "assorted rare breed pullets" at the store last fall, but I knew she was from Hoover's Hatchery. I figured out from their list of rare breeds and her all-yellow chick coloring that she was likely one of the green or blue layers.

Today, Dottie laid her first-ever egg, and it's light blue. She's a Prairie Bluebell Egger after all! I could not be more proud of her beautiful little egg!!!!

I'll bet Dottie couldn't be prouder of her egg, either. I can't wait for my pullets to start laying because of how happy they are when they lay. 😁
