So after the initial excitement of finding an egg last Friday, we diligently checked every single day thereafter...only to find empty nesting boxes. :( The chickens were out all day Saturday, Sunday and most of Monday so it's possible that she laid another one outside and a critter ate it (because I looked everywhere- a REAL egg hunt!), but even when she was locked in the rest of the week, nothing!
Well, what did we find Friday afternoon? Another egg! And this time, it was in one of the nesting boxes instead of the coop floor- what a fast learner!
I'm not sure if she's just a once a week layer or if she's just learning, but the second egg is BIG. We are going to have some nice fluffy omelets eventually. ;)
Everett insisted that I take his picture with the egg since he didn't get a picture last time...
