Had my first egg today from my girls!! It is only about the size of a bantams egg and has a very thin shell, but still it is an egg!
No idea which one laid it, although suspect it was Clementine or Daisy as they are the biggest and Clem in particular has a nice red comb. I read somewhere (probably on here) that that is one of the signs with young birds that they are getting ready to lay (the combs getting bigger and darker that is).
One thing perplexing me slightly is that they are only about fourteen weeks old (supposedly), but my Maran types in particular are quite a bit bigger than the others. Are Marans a big breed or do you think that maybe I've got a couple that are a bit older than the others?!
