Tell that to Flora Mae, who is on her 9th day of broodiness

She has 3 eggs.

Oh dear!! haha! that is so funny. I guess it is chick time no matter the time of year!

I think this unseasonably warm weather caused my almost 8 month old silkies to lay their first eggs!

I was greeted today by not just one, but 3!!


Which leads me to my next question...fertile or infertile? The roosters are 5 months old, I'm not sure if they're even able to successfully mate (they sure try) but one looks fertile! I think.

Nice eggs! Anyone that wants to be ragging on bantam eggs ought to get a look at those in your hand. Very nice. And...Somebody in the coop is getting the job done.
