Congratulations!
Im hoping for a egg in the next 2 weeks from mine

Id say she was 4 or 5 weeks at that age

Then she's about 18-20 weeks now. So give yours a few more weeks.

This is so exciting. Report immediately ok
Wondering what color egg you will get or do all cochins lay the same color egg?

Ill definitely post as soon as mine lay!
I think they all lay around the same colored egg

Still not laying but i checked the width between her pelvic bones. Between the top 2 its 2 1/2 fingers and between the top pelvic and the bottom its 3 so she is very close.
My other one is 1 finger and 2

My hens dont lay in the nesting boxes. Since ive been trying different reuasble nesting pads. Well i got a egg in the box. Its a tad smaller than my hens eggs. So i dont think its one of theirs. Its either my black australorps or the bantam cochin started!
Of course the camera was in the wrong direction to.

Always like that with camera. The cochin egg is very small, so if it's a tiny egg, then it's her. How old is the australorp?

Any news? Any eggs yet?

I started getting 2 more small brown eggs. I am not sure if it's my other little bantam or a regular chicken. It's bigger than my bantam egg, but smaller than a regular egg.
BTW, I get 4-5 eggs q week from Cupcake.

The little brown at the bottom is from cupcake. The 2 on top are from my adult chickens. The ones in the middle I found and I don't know who laid them yet. But I am stoked!!!
