Apparently, one of the Australorps decided to get into the egg-laying business, meaning we now have two of the Ladies earning their keep. From the picture you can see the difference in color, the brown egg coming from an Australorp (e.g. John or Paul). We don't yet know if the difference in size is a breed characteristic or just to be expected with the first couple eggs; we're thinking the latter.

Your eggs seem extra pointy in comparison to the non-refrigerated eggs of Singapore. Round and some come with weird things injected in them. Ewww. Very nice. Martha would be proud. CONGRATULATIONS!
Wow, what eggs you have my dear!!! Have you thought about knitting your lovely chicks some cozy egg warmers!! Gotta keep snug, winters coming!!! My friend's chicken just loves tomatos!!Precious chicks of yours there, especially Mother Hen!!
More herding videos,please!!Big sister is doing a fantastic job. Can she handle the newest ovoid chicks at the Place de la Yolk?
Hey Jud and Laura!! This is Drew. It is good you are building up agricultural skills. When the political and economic structures collapse I say we consolidate both families on a large communal farm in SC! :D
Do we need to buy a goat and a cow?I have 2 seater buggy from amishland. It is a long ride to SC.
Pointy eggs must be easier to get out/ouch!
