What a beautiful surprise!

Went down to check on the new chicks I bought today at the chicken swap and happened to look into the nesting boxes and found this:

main suspect:

over the past few days her face has gotten very red while her sisters still have pink/yellow faces.

Yeah!!! It's a beautiful Tiffany blue egg! Congrats!

wow pretty blue egg. They come out full size the 1st time? I thought they started with smaller eggs? WOW!!! Fantastic!

Ditto! The egg and the hen are so pretty! Congrats!

It's a little smaller then a normal egg, but a little bigger then a normal pullet egg.

It's actually lighter, like it looks in the second picture.


I blew it out and plan on keeping it forever.

Couldn't bring myself to crack it open.

So pretty! That is what I hope for one of my 3 EE.

Good luck!

I was hoping at least one of my three would lay blue/green eggs, and my girl Owly seems to have come through for me!
