Awwwwww, bless your little boy. I love their names. My grand kids (3 7 and 9) can never wait for the hens to get up off the nest, and they race to get the eggs.

OH Here.

 

Here are some pictures that Chrissie took yesterday of the new arrivals.

 

They are pretty 'flighty' a the moment and so good pictures are hard to come by (at least thats what

Chrissie says!).

 

 

As Chrissie has already posted the Crested's are quite a lot older and look ready to lay, and so to

her great pleasure - a blue egg with 2 hours of arriving, defintely a chicken dance moment

44gms - small but defintely blue

 

Here is the picture

 

 

And here is one with compared to one of our older hens (Latte I think)

 

 

And then checked again at 16:30 today (same sort of time as yesterday) and guess what

another blue egg !!! (Chrissie doesn't know yet as she is out all day !!)

 

OH Signing out.....

[the-real-tinkerbell]

oh wow they look fantastic

i love the blue egg im so jealous ive been waiting a week and still dont have one i dont mind that they are not laying i just want to know if they lay blue eggs or not ,im off to sulk now lol i could of had those 2 lol

[Seagazer]

Lovely girls and how great to get a blue egg so soon

[Plum]

They are all lovely. The white girls are really pretty guess you'll get lovely white eggs from them.

[Chicken Shirl]

Thanks OH, they should call you DH from now on. They are all beautiful girls. Thanks for posting the photo's. Blue eggs.

[Space Chick]

They are so cute

 

Great news about the blue egg too

[Purplemaniacs]

Thank you for your lovely comments.

 

Two blue eggs I can't believe it.

 

OH isn't sure which of the two crested laid it, the first was quite long and thin, todays is shorter and rounder, I wonder if it the same girl or the other one, sadly I have to go to school tomorrow so I can't chicken watch

 

Still trying to decide on names.

LOVELY photos and beautiful new girlies! Names, did someone mention names? After I'd named mine last weekend, I suddenly thought I could have called them after the Desperate Housewives Bree, Gabby, Edie, Lynette, Susan, Katherine, Mary Alice......... (sad I know but it's the only TV programme I watch!)

Our pekin chicks look like flamenco dancers so we are thinking of calling them Celia and Juanita so you are not on your own (by the way I know that the Solis family are Mexican but we watch it too and the names sort of fit).

Yay well done! They are lovely girls! But I am jealous and struggling to restrain myself - I desperately need some more blue and white egg layers. Must sit on my hands and hide my purse

Snowy, I won't tell you what I found in the eglu then when I got home from school............. a lovely blue egg and a lovely green one too So the other crested has started to lay

 

I am so pleased I had hoped for some lovely coloured eggs, the white ones are quite a bit younger they don't have any red headgear yet just a small amount of pink, so I will have to wait for a while for white eggs.
