You could get some white fimo & roll up some different sized ones bake em then paint them to look like what colors you've gotten so far. Make a great family project too

Don't use air dry clay lol my daughter wanted to make eggs to ~help her chickens know where to go~ (she's 4) How can you say no to that -> those didn't last too long needless to say

You could even get the different colored fimo & mash em up till you get the shades you want!
LOL, I tried using a plastic easter egg last night, put a thick mixture of plaster of paris in half of it and closed it up, then rolled it, shook it, rolled got the stuff to stick around the inside of the egg best we could (turned out to have a similar weight to a real egg) and finaly, it was left to cure till this morning. So now comes the problem I knew I'd have.... How the heck do I get the plastic off now?

So far nothing is working, LOL. I think I'm going to try a razer sharp blade and see if I can't cut through the plastic!

My first egg from my 24 week old Barred Rock! It is perfect...a little smaller than my GLW and BO, but pretty shape and color.

It really is a pretty and perfect egg with lovely color!!! Congratulations!!!!

Well my first egg has finally arrived ... Actually two eggs notice my brown hen Gertie was in the neat boxes when she came out found two eggs can they lay two??? Or did my other hen Mabel lay one while I wasn't lookin ??? Z
Nope, must be someone in cahoots with her

I still have to finish my second coop. Life keeps getting in the way here!!!
I think they sell fake eggs for that purpose, to put them "in the mood" :)
Yah, but it's fun to try and make them, LOL
 
I know... she is not a chicken. This is my Royal Palm Turkey hen. She got attacked by a neighbors dog about 6 weeks ago. I thought she might not make it but she pulled throw and now laying eggs. She can't fly right now. One of her wings is still not usable. So I did not notice the first egg. She can't get to the nesting boxes. She must have laid it the day before on the ground. I am sooooo egg-cited.


It makes a great addition to my other eggs...


I will have to build her a box at ground level... She deserves that.

YAY Turkey eggs !!!!!! I cant wait for mine. Sorry to hear about your hen, poor thing. I hope she makes a full recovery.
 
My other Marans first egg her sister laid her 1st egg a day ago. straight from the coop its so cold out that the eggs are sweating from the heat difference, lol. Dark eggs are so pretty.

Aww, poor sweetie! She's really pretty! Those eggs are just beautiful together! I love the blues, and then the speckled browns, very lovely collection!

This isnt my first egg but its my first blue egg!
















This is the chicken that laid them



We have gotten more ever since.

They are much bluer in person
Wow, is it just me, or are those HUGE?

Wow, that must really be cold! I love those dark browns too! hummm, I might need to get a maran, and and easter egger, LOL. Too fun!
 

First egg today. Not sure which one of the girls gave this to us...but like I told one of my friends...it's not like they have little pens and sign their work! But seriously, I think it was one of my Barred Rocks...they seem to be the most mature of the bunch...otherwise...it's from one of the Golden Comets. Either way...we're very excited here and can't wait to check for eggs tomorrow!! YAY!!
