Exactly six months to the day and I have eggs from my ladies… finally! Another good piece of news is now I know for sure they are indeed pullets. Sometimes you just can’t tell on a SIlkie until they actually lay an egg.
Here’s what I have since Saturday…

My Silkie hen of 10months has successfully hatched and is caring for 7 chicks from 3 different hens. She is the perfect mother and really looks as if she has enjoyed the whole experience. I love all the chicken tips that you give here.
Yay, that’s what I’m hoping for too.
How exciting is that!!! 🙂
I’m always happy when I start getting those first pullet eggs. Small though they are, there’s just something special about the size and the miracle of it all. Congratulations!!!
I know! They are tiny, but I was happy to see they were normal looking. Sometimes you get weird ones at first.
Congratulations! Looks like they are doing a good job.
Indeed! Of course they will probably go broody real quick and that will change everything. lol
Wow and what beautiful eggs they are. You must be so proud of your young ladies. Hugs
They are proud too, they sure let me know when they lay. 🙂
They should be those are beautiful eggs.
Wow that’s a lot of eggs!
Funny, I was just reading your blog!
