First Egg

It’s Saturday and it’s raining, so it’s a lazy day around our house. I went out to check on the chickens this morning around 10am and found Gertrude in one of the nesting boxes. About an hour later Jason and I heard Gertrude come out of the coop…Ba gok, Ba gok, Ba gok!!! So we went outside and along with all the other chickens started heading to the coop to see what all the commotion was about. I had a pretty good idea, and there it was…our first egg. It’s small, about half the size of an average egg, but we’re told the more they have the bigger they get. We’re glad we could be home for the first one.
