It’s always so exciting to me to find the first pullet eggs in the nest boxes, our little chicks we got in February are now laying quite regularly. Our new little girls lay three different colors of eggs: white, brown, green and dark brown. Dark brown is a new color for us and I’m excited about it.
You can tell a pullet egg by the size, they are new little hens and lay cute little eggs, as you can see in the picture below, gradually the eggs will get bigger as the hens mature.
After some losses, a hard molt, too many roosters messing up my ladies I’m glad to see egg production on the upswing, I’m thinking I will have extra to sell soon!
I love different colored eggs. Nothing like home grown.
I love the first little eggs. We asked the kids who had put rocks in the coop with our first batch of chickens. They didnt know they were real eggs. Love the dark brown too
I can hardly wait to get some!
We have been getting pullet eggs too lately…Hurray!
Fresh is always best. Yum!
Beautiful! Brings back memories of gathering eggs at a nearby bed + breakfast:)
