What a day!

Well, I went to bed around 12:45 this morning with 7 pips.  Around 3:45 the local police department called looking for my husband because someone had tried to break in to the restaurant he works in and he's on the emergency call list AND... I had a baby out!!  10 minutes later... ANOTHER!.




We worked on the coop ALL day so I didn't have much time to keep checking but as of 10:00 tonight we have 10 light Brahma babies :)



AND..

My eggs that I bought the other day arrived and they are BEAUTIFUL!!


Blue EE egg and a Mille Fleur D'Uccle bantam egg

My lovely EE eggs with an Egglands Best white egg for color comparison :)
I LOVE my egg babies.. LOL

  2. Holy crap there's a lot of color going on there! It makes the white on look not too appetizing! Thanks for the comparison of the regular size by the bantam egg. I had heard that two of them would equal somewhere around a regular large egg. :)
