We have an EGG!

I have been both very busy and very lazy. I have not updated the chicken blog in a very long time. Honestly, there has not been much to report. I started making a nesting box yesterday, and plan on finishing it this week or weekend. I was planning on photos and a blog update for that. The eggs were to start coming sometime in September. We calculated, mid to late September.

But then...

This happened...

An EGG!!!

Yes, we got our first egg. We don't know which one of the ladies gave it to us. Don't even know when. It was not there this morning when I fed them. But when I came home and Jenn had let them out to walk around. It was just sitting there in the coop.

That is the big news. The big announcement. I will be sure to post when the nesting box is done.
