They did it!



I have such smart readers! A few of you commented last night that I should be expecting eggs soon. I went out this morning and found 2! I don't know if they both starting laying at the same time or if I missed 1 yesterday. I'm so excited!!!
It feels like a miracle. I know chickens lay eggs, but it is so different when your girls are the ones doing it.
Some silly egg pictures.

Oh!! There's no feeling like it in the world, is there, Christy? That joy you feel now isn't going to end any time soon, either. I still delight -every, single day - in the eggs I find...and I've passed the 1,073 egg mark now! (just since July!!)

Congratulations and a big chicken sister HUG to you and Logan!!

I do know how egg-citing it is! Like Danni said, I still am so delighted to go out and gather eggs, in fact, Mike and I elbow each other to get out of the way because each of us enjoys the "chore" of finding the daily eggs. Congratulations.

The first egg is the most amazing thing! It does seem like a miracle. I blew out the content of our first egg and kept the shell.

Oh, congratulations! I remember how I felt the first time I found eggs.
It was just like Christmas :-)

I noticed the picture of the Silver Hamburg from the poultry show. I have one, her name is Lucy Wallace, she lays little white eggs, and boy can she fly!
