First Silkie has laid an egg. I suspect it was the middle one of the white ones as she squats for the rooster (dark one on the left).
They are small chickens, so a diddy little egg.
She laid it in the mud at the edge of the run. I am hoping she will get the idea and lay the next one in the nest box. I added a few more fake eggs to give her the idea. One of them has been digging around in the nest boxes and throwing all the eggs out (there are 2 legbar in this run already laying) for a few days, so I have been wondering if one if them might be thinking about starting laying. So exciting!
