Jingle bells, Batman smells, someone laid an egg…
One of the younger hens laid an egg today for the first time (or at least, the first in the coop). It’s the middle one, almost adobe colored. For reference is an extra-large Eggland’s Best from Wegmans (white) and part of the shell of one of Squeak’s eggs (Paul had a huge omlet yesterday of her remaining eggs; she’s broody and thus not laying at the moment). Has to be one of the rhode island reds or jersey giants, probably the former (Providence looks the most mature and Mahogany’s making broody noises lately). With any luck the Ameraucanas will start laying green or blue eggs soon, too.
