Good morning! It's been a very busy month. I hope everyone is doing well! My hens are laying and my rabbits are acting like they want to build nests, but it hasn't been 28 days since I bred them. I will post some questions on the rabbit forum.
I've gotten some large eggs and some small ones that I know are just because my girls are new to laying. My first Jumbo egg on the left 71g, 48g for reference and XL 66g. The jumbo was a double yolked egg...I've had several of those.
First Blue egg! I'm loving my colorful mix!
I took eggs to my daughter & sil and I stamped them with the egg stamps they gave to me on mothers day!

I've decided to go ahead and place Daphne's nesting box into her cage and let her build her nest since that seems to be what she wants to do! Hopefully she won't decide to use it as a litter box...I'll just have to keep an eye on it and clean it if she does! Getting excited and a little nervous for her!

Do you know where they got it? Would be a cute gift for someone who shares eggs with others.

Good morning! I think they found them on Etsy. I will ask them. I believe they also bought the ink on etsy...it's food safe!

Love to bring eggs in the house and look at them... especially when there are different colors. When I had the free range layers, all the eggs were brown, that is what sells here, and all I could think of, was I ever going to get done washing and packing... but that was like 10 doz or more a day... had up to 150 hens at one time.... still, it was nice to be able to fill an order for 10 and 20 dozen at a time.... one place I did flats.... 2 1/2 dozen to a flat.... a case was 30 dozen and they would take 2 cases one week, 1 case the following usually.... it was a summer camp.... LOTTA EGGS....
