So YES! My first egg came on HALLOWEEN :)) My only sadness is that I don't know which of my 12 ladies gave me the gift of this beautiful egg. I wish I did, just so I could thank her, maybe with a strawberry (they are WILD about strawberries). Fertilized or not, I think giving away your eggs can't be completely easy. I love my girls so and I'm learning so much from them. But, I'm scared to eat the egg- I read somewhere that the first few eggs wouldn't be worth much-that they would be small, shaped awkward and possibly even wonky looking...but this looks like perfection. If there are any chicken raisers out there that can give me more tips I would LOVE THEM!!!
which of these lovely ladies laid the first egg, If I only knew??

THE FIRST EGG SHARES COLINS BIRTHDAY. Oh, my god. i remember when they were just little chicks who needed help cleaning their butts. I can't believe how much time has gone by and I can't wait to see the crazy ladies in november.
