Post your FIRST EGG pics!

I was just outside, it's 9AM here, and I found two eggs!
Have been waiting for my LB hen to start, she is 39 weeks now! I am guessing the other one is Plymouth Rock, she was in the nesting box when I came in, she is 20 weeks. I also have a buff orp 20 weeks, but I doubt its her, must be the brahma!

They're next to a matchbox for comparison, the larger one is actually quite big. Not store size, but not too far from it!

Congrats to all. Love that first smile. It says it all.

First egg today from my 23.5 week old BA! It's light brown and silky smooth... FUN to hold!

Our CM has been laying for about 4 weeks now. So, finally now we have 2 girls laying! Here's the BA's egg next to the CM egg, both laid today.

Here's our first egg!!!

Yippeeee! They're no longer freeloaders! (One of them isn't, anyway!)
It was a long wait, as all three of our chickens are 25 weeks old!

Here's the egg:

About 2 inches:

Here's the good girl who did it! This pic is right before she laid the egg, and she has made a nest in the pine shavings, right beside the nesting box.

(The opening of it is on the right, just outside the picture.) We'll have to work on getting her in the right place, now!

Finally! Split an order of chicks this spring and the other two families had gotten eggs already from their hens. Starting to worry. Went away overnight this weekend and when we got back we found two eggs in the coop. Assuming the first one was the one on the floor (egg on the left) and the second one was the egg in the nesting box (she must have figured it out!). Second egg is in the middle in the picture with a store-bought large egg on the right for comparison. I kept checking today and it was my speckled sussex Goldie in the nesting box. She laid another today. Now if only the other 3 ladies (another sussex, an EE, and an australorp) would do the same! They are 24 weeks old.
