First Came our Chickens, We Finally Got an Egg!

Hooray, our first egg!  I heard a ruckus in the coop and thought either they were ganging up on girl Vespa.  OR, could it be an egg???  Been looking every morning in hopes one would show up soon.  We are not sure which lady did it, but the whole family was very excited!  We all took a little bite of the first egg, but the prize went to our youngest lady of the house.  Our 1 yr old had it for dinner and gobbled it up!  Our first egg had a double yolk too. . .not sure what old wives tales are about that, but we got a kick out of it.

On a side note, Girl Vespa seems to have been accepted in to the flock.  She is low in the pecking order, but they roost together at night now and cohabit without bloodshed.
