Pullet Surprise!

[BigBlueHen53]

At 18 weeks and 2 days, one of my Brown Leghorn pullets has blessed me with my first white egg! I'm so tickled! I've pictured it between the other two eggs I got today for comparison purposes. My older flock consists of EEs and BOs. And - it was in one of the nests, with the golf balls, so, win-win. Woo-hoo! Good chicken! Happy mama! The excruciating wait is rewarded!

Oh that's wonderful! I got 3 new pullets yesterday, the fella said the brown leghorn was probably already laying....I'm so excited!

Thank you! I was surprised at how ridiculously tickled I was.

Even after 5-6 years, I am still tickled with new pullet eggs!

x2! Love when the pullets start producing! Eighteen weeks is very good, too.

My Brown Leghorns took forever to start laying.
