Yes, it has finally happened. All those hard months of caring for our chickens, and the reward is here. This morning I checked the nesting box, aka the egg box, and found a beautiful brown egg. The only down side was that it had been smashed to smithereens! I don't know if she pecked it and broke it or if it broke when she laid it. So I am anxiously awaiting the next egg, so I can actually taste the difference between store and fresh eggs. The yolk was a bright orangish color, which is the big difference in appearance for fresh eggs. I am so excited for the rest of the girls to start laying. They should start laying more frequently in the next few weeks.
