Our Very First Eggs!

[SCOdoubleT]

We are so excited! Got our first egg this past Thursday, which makes our chickens exactly 18 weeks old. Very surprised to see an egg that early, but since then we have gotten three more. We have Buff Orpingtons, Barred Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Red, and Black Sex Links. I have no clue who laid the eggs, but happy they did!

First photo is of where we found the first egg.
Second are the eggs setup with what we gathered from the garden the other day.

Congratulations...that 1st egg is so egg-citing! You'll be getting a lot more eggs with your breeds.

Beautiful! Nothing like getting your first egg, and every one after! Another benefit I love as a gardener: having thrilled recipients for garden overflow and past-prime produce. Help your birds plus get it all back in healthful eggs.

Amazing! I myself am waiting for my first ever eggs. My barred rock has just started squatting!

Love your avatar...do you have a budding artist in the house?

Congrats!
Not unusual for sexlinks to lay as early as 16 weeks.
