New Pullets

The new chickens are finally laying their first eggs which are called pullet eggs. They are about half the size of regular eggs. They lays these for a little bit until they completely mature. It has been exciting watching them begin to lay eggs. They are usually quite proud of themselves and announce it to the whole neighborhood when they have been successful. The old hens, Rhode Island Reds, were having a hard time sharing this last domain they still had exclusive use of in the coop. It seems like things are settling down though. Looks like they were all able to work it out.

I apologize to my readers for the lack of posting lately. A lot going on with the start of the school year. I am going to try and be more regular in my posts from now on. Hope all of you are doing well.
