[thegoogers]

So Justice, my 5 year old and I are walking along with our new puppy Jethro. We walk up the drive way and check the chickens...Justice starts yelling AN EGG!!!!! AN EGG!!!! AN EGG!!!

There sitting in the middle of the run was this!

This came from the Welsummers we just got! They will be 23 weeks on Thursday!

Here is a comparison picture:

Are you positive the brown eggs came from different birds? They look the same...

Congrats on the egg!

The do don't they!! We actually got the big brown egg from a friend of ours who has been keeping us in stock of farm eggs until ours begin laying. All he has (with the exception of his roo) are RIR. So I am sure

the pic doesn't show it but they are actually lighter in color.

Thanks everyone!! We were thrilled HA HA
