Well, my EE, Runt, laid her first egg today! Its a purty light blue or green, depending on lightring! Now, she's a house chicken for the winter... and, well, she's taken to dustbathing in the litter box

so guess where she decided to lay? Yup, you guessed it... litter box.

Now, this is the one for my cat... Thankfully, it was just cleaned, so nothing nasty in there... but good grief, I wished she'd picked a better spot!

And one of the girls who lays white eggs has started too, either my Polish or Lakenvelder, hmmmm.....

Here's 4, for comparison. The speckled egg is from my Blue Copper Marans pullet, double yolker (Thats all she lays right now, poor girl

Maybe word spread from my hens to yours: I had to install a covered cat litter box in my coop just for my girls. They won't lay anywhere else lol

Very pretty eggs!
