Strepsy

Yay! First egg here too :-D *pics added*

Recommended Posts

Yay, can't believe it, first egg!

 

It wasn't completely hard, kind of rubbery but it was a double yolker and weighed 49g. I think it must have been Hatti who laid it as she seems most mature but could have been Pepsi? It was just lay in the run near the feeders. :D

 

I scrambled it so everyone could try some though I was a bit squeamish about it tbh. :oops:

 

I'll post some pics in a bit. lol.

I think that's a normal reaction Strepsy - there is something very sterile about a shop bought egg isn't there? :D I certainly felt a bit like that with my first few eggs - it soon passes. Then comes back the first time you collect an egg after seeing your chickens wolf down a heap of slugs and snails (or even a frog :vom:) :lol:

I don't know why I was squeamish really. Just the fact that it had come from one of my chickens and was a still a bit warm. Silly really... I'm sure I'll soon get over it.

 

My OH is the same if I come in with a warm egg from the nestbox, it doesnt bother me but I usually leave them a day or so before eating.
