We are also getting broken eggs...Here's my biggest egg so far 65g and it looks like it's been pecked...I don't know what's going on! My son said he brought in 7 eggs today and 3 were broken! I don't know what the other two looked like, my son said he tossed them and missed seeing that this one was broken!

Are you sure your son has not been practicing in your absence

Could very well be...but he'd probably use a bigger caliber...

The girls are doing great...so far no broken eggs today...so @cavemanrich maybe he is using them for practice when I'm not here...

Today's largest egg was 66g! I'm loving the color variety that I'm getting! The middle egg has white speckles with a pinkish/tan under color, not sure who laid it! This is the first one like it I've brought in!


66g, 57g, 44g, 44g, 33g

Very pretty eggs! That pinkish one is really nice.

I hope I get more like it!
I think I will have at least one more egg today...Pearl was just getting into the nesting box a little while ago!

 

[WhoDatChick]

She's big, but she is pretty! I've always read how people-friendly they are...do you find that to be true with your girl?

Actually no... she is not all that friendly... she’ll usually skitter away.
It seems some of mine were the opposite.. my Silkie was my scariest chicken.. and my BO..like I said.... but my RIR is very friendly ... but Lilly and Kelly are my most friendliest of all... they literally come for hugs everyday!! Lilly is the LB and Kelly is EE...

A treat for my chickens today!!!

Sooooo pretty

Yes, I put frozen corn into silicone molds, filled it with water & froze them. I just ordered 2 10" silicone cake pans, I think they will make it easier for them to eat it!
