I got my first egg! In fact I got Two first eggs!! Happened while I was at work, BF found one in the coop, I found one outside the coop when I got home! They are lovely little brown eggs- I am so proud of my girls

They are really pretty.

I have one girl giving me eggs just like that right now. Cute little "beginner eggs". Every time I pick one from the nest I am amazed how perfect it is. It feels more solid than a store bought egg (hard to explain) and I love when I catch it still warm. Mmmm fresh!
 
How exciting for you! I thought my brother was playing a practical joke on me. He had come over and was admiring his handiwork on the coop and found my first one! I accused him of trying to trick me with a fake egg.

Arent they cute and tiny. At least mine was tiny. They get big quickly though.

It is still a thrill everytime I go out and find eggs!
 
I'm hating this waiting game. lol My girls will be 5 months old on the 12th, and are still pretty small looking. I'm sure I still have a little while before I get any first eggs. But the wait is horrible. It's like waiting for baby chicks to hatch. lol

Lol try waiting for them to lay when they are pretty decent sized. I fed higher protein like a friend of mine did and my girls.are as big as some I have introduced that are fully grown. This is just frustrating.
