Silkie started to lay at 5 months old!

I have two a little older than 5 months old silkies, one of which has started to lay. (2 months early!) Today my dad could not find Dusty and so we started to look in the run and coop. I found her in the corner a little cozy quiet spot in the coop and picked her up. I was extremely surprised when I saw two eggs under her. They are both almost perfect, little cream colored eggs. (They are the first eggs we've gotten)

AWWWW, Adorable like fluff balls. Just be prepared because silkies love to go broody and find hiding places to try and sit on eggs. Which in my case is annoying but they're so cute I put up with their weird little tendencies.
