  1. YES YES YES! Yippeeee.... I am so happy for you A/C Breeze! Maybe later this week you will get more... Maybe you will see someone sitting in the nesting box..... OMG we both got our first eggs from our original hens TODAY .... yipppeeeeee

    According to my records our girls are approx 26 weeks. None of us realized how important it was to know their exact hatch date with our oldest pullets... NOW we know our hatch dates and sometimes even the hour of their hatch... LOL

    I am so happy for you Breeze! I hope all your girls lay this week..

    Your RIR is 7 weeks old today and your Buff is 9 weeks old and your EE is prob 10 weeks old... and JT and his girls are 26 or 27 weeks old!

  2. BYC says that a pullet is a pullet till her first Bday.... I thought they were hens as soon as they layed.... is it layed or laid? Ask the school teacher or BETH.. Beth probably knows...

  5. I have no idea. Do you still have the bottle? I'm sure the manufacturer might be the best source for that??

  6. In my mind, they are hens once they start laying, laid, or have lain. But yes, technically they are still pullets, and these are pullet eggs (smaller than they will be in a few months).

    Breeze, many many congratulations! I'm very excited for you! The first egg is a thing to celebrate. And you should have many many more in your future! =)
