Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

Well, it turns out that my pullet must've layed her first egg yesterday because I just found another egg in the nesting box. I know it's hers because she was sitting in the nesting box a few minutes before. I hope I have a good layer.
 
That's happened to me. Hard to keep track sometimes, but 2 is better than one!

You can make an omelette now.
 
clindz, that is hysterical! Love all the dos. Reminds me of boys' sculpted haircuts of the 80s. Modified mohawks and flat tops. The cockerel has quite a comb. What kind would you call that? Hope you can post more pics as they grow. I don't have a single crested bird (except son's cockatiel). I am envious of your cuties!!!!
 

there's a video over at Group of Seven... she took them outside (sort of). they didn't go more than a few feet from the safety of the pen, but they were the only ones out, along with Julius and Junebug... I wanted it easy to control. plus it was a bit cloudy...
 
Well.. Rumples' chicks are now 8 weeks old. I rehomed one chick that I was 99% sure was a cockerel. His face was very red and he looked the part. One chick is a pullet for sure. The other 3..
??? Cockerel is my guess. I am going to separate them from Rumples to give her a break. I promise to post pictures this weekend.
