my 8 month old wydotte pullet just started laying yesterday.her eggs are very small a bit smaller then the palm of my hand[my hands are small] i just collected another egg today and still small =/ im wondering if wydottes just have small eggs or its just that this is her first 2 eggs in a new home and when they will start getting bigger.will post pics need answers ASAP

8 months is fairly late for her to just be starting but it is typical for the first eggs to be small,oddshaped, shellless or have some other imperfection
 
I would be happy with that first egg. Remember that most store bought eggs are L or XL.

How is her diet? Too many treats will hurt egg production.
 
Oh no no no she laid before we got her but these are her first eggs here :P
