i canNOT believe it.

Friday, i put in the temporary nest box.

Yesterday i locked them all in all day, and nothin'!

Then tonight, when i went to lock them up, i found it.

One little pullet egg, sitting on the shelf that holds the roosting bars.

Cracked a little, so who knows where it was lain from....

But i got my first egg.

Here it is.

Isn't it beautiful!

Here it is next to a store-bought inferior comparison.

    I am still waiting for my first egg... 9 Rhode Island Reds, 1 Black Sexlink. 4 of the RIR are roosters... probably won't have them much longer.
