When I was little I did Ukranian Pysanky eggs with my Baba...but the eggs were just given to me to do the waxing and whatnot... Never knew how the eggs became hollow. I just thought they were bought from a store. :)

When you blow out the egg, the contents is just fine to make a scrambled egg sandwich. :drool Enjoy the first egg,,,,,:thumbsup

Not sure how big that sammich will be...lol Plus...I did promise the bf that we would both share that first eggie. It's sort of small compared to the double-yolkers we buy off of the farmer. May each get a tablespoon of eggie each...maybe :)

Oh wow, I'd love to try that. A friend made one for me, but I've never tried it.
I saw a posting on my local CL for hollowed out eggs.
 
KP don't be teasing Bashful about the size of her egg ;). Took her a lot of work to make that and bigger ones will be not too far away. And don't be surprised if you get some wonky eggs along the way. Takes them a bit of practice to get it all worked out. Be wary of super large eggs as we've had reports of eggs inside eggs here on BYC:lol:

Now that I'm done teasing you...
:woot:celebrate:celebrate:wee:celebrate:celebrate:woot
for that first egg.

So far so good with Bashful's eggies! I've been getting them daily, an hour later than the day before. :) All the same size with very little variation in color. First one was lighter than the other days, but that's about the only difference.

Some strange goings on though with the laying of the eggies...

** Bashful runs down the ramp to the run...pecks about for a little bit then makes a made dash back up the ramp. Then does the Goldilocks trying out the bears' beds thing in each nest box...runs in one, scrunches around, runs out...goes to another one...scrunches about...run out...goes to the next one...then runs down the ramp...scratches...runs back up. Repeat.

** Then...after about 20 rounds of the above routine...King joins in the craziness. He goes in the dang nest box with her. Then he leaves and goes to another box. Coos a bit, then Bashful comes tearing out of the box she's in to go to the one King is in. They do this about a dozen or so times...

** Then...after the above 2 routines take place the rest of the clan joins the craziness. They all go into the coop and spectate...sometimes one will try to go into the box with Bashful and King...or stand directly at the box opening.

When all is said and done, Bashful has been laying in the same box everyday....

Oh...no egg song. :( So....just for poops and giggles, while hanging in the run with them...I played a Youtube video "The loudest egg song ever".... King...is the only one to sing along. :lau

These dang chickens crack me up....I love them. :love
