Our FIRST EGG!!!

YEAH.....I went out to shut the chicken coop door tonight and VIOLA....our FIRST EGG!!!

I'm sooooooo....HAPPY!!!! Yes, they "are" egg layer's, Yes, they "will" use the nesting box!!!

I was getting very discouraged, even got down on my hand's and knee's tonight to look beneath the coop to find out if the girl's had layed eggs beneath the coop and not told me!!! What a relief they hadn't!!!

Egg #1 from Egg Engineering at Coop De Ville...

Now...who layed it???

  3. And such a pretty one, too! I always think they are so cute, as usually they are smaller at first.
