Phoenix first egg!

[feather13]

We have 11 5-mon-old pullets (and two seven year old hens who have quit laying) and just got our first egg from one of the Phoenix! It's really tiny and cream colored. Yesterday she flew at me (which she never does) and seemed to guide me to the egg box and then it seemed like she wanted me to stick around while she laid her egg lol. It must be such an odd experience for her since last night she slept by herself far from the other chickens.

Congratulations to her and you.

Oh, how cool is that. "Hey, mom, look what I did!"

Congratulations to you both.
