They did it! That’s right. Or rather I should say, she did it. But since I don’t know which one of the five hens laid the egg, I’m saying they.

Our first egg!! For the sake of comparison, because these are, well, spring chickens, here’s a shot of our first egg next to a store-bought egg.

The eggs will get bigger as the chickens get older. Mmmm, fresh eggs! Fresh, free-range chicken eggs!
