So our 5 mo Ameraucana pullets just started laying - a couple of weeks now. One of the big splash pullets laid a teensie egg (the size of one of the Serama eggs but a beautiful blue); then a medium sized egg and now she's laying M/L sizes eggs.

One of the pullets is not yet laying at all but she was really really slow to bloom. The other 4 are laying and have each laid around 4 eggs but ALL of them are Serama sized.

Any thoughts on when they might start getting bigger? These are all pure bred Ameraucanas, hatched from l/xl eggs. Is this breed just slow to lay larger eggs or do I just need to get over it and quit watching the pot waiting for it to boil. ;)
