Chicken Eggs!

My chickens are about 30 weeks now.  And one, maybe two of them, have FINALLY started laying eggs.      I think it's two, because the eggs seem to be different colors, but who knows.  We found 4 on Saturday, and 3 this morning.  I didn't check Sunday (oops!)  About the only chicken is can't be is the Easter Egger, and that's because her eggs are supposed to be green/bluish/pinkish.

I'm pretty excited though.  I was beginning to think that maybe my girls wouldn't lay until the Spring.

The eggs were delicious- I scrambled them with a touch of butter.  The yolks were a deep orange and very firm.  Not at all runny like a store bought egg.  I'm looking forward to more eggs!  (And sending notice to the rest of the girls! They need to start laying too!)
