Woohoo, a REAL egg!

So to all of you who have read my many post on about my chickens who lay no eggs get this. We were out admiring my girls

we just got our new roofing material to finish our new winter coop (as we want to make sure they are warm during winter) and I said to my hubby, "Hun, look how red "chicken nuggets" comb is getting, I bet with in a day or two in their new coop (with electric) we get an egg!" and hubby says " I bet your right, she is looking really red!"

we gave them some treats and hubby stops looks in their coop and their lies a golden egg

(so ok it was not really gold, but it meant just as much to us as if it had been!)

my 4 yr old son joined in our happy dance celebration!

We are so proud of her (she is our only standard size chicken so we are sure who it came from) we gave her more treats and told her what a good girl she is and she tried talking to us (still working on the chicken dialect

) But 7 months of feed and two new coops and endless treats have finally paid off (well....kinda, its like a $100.00 egg)

Now to decide....who gets to eat it???

Thought I would share my GREAT news! ( Wait till I get to tell the neighbors I only need a half a dozen LOL)
