Well, there it is.
What a surprise to find a little white egg in the chicken coop, this second day of January.
The books I've read said the chickens wouldn't lay with less than 14 hours of sunlight, so I didn't expect any eggs until spring.
I admit it was exciting to find the egg.
First egg interior. A very deep yellow yolk, which is held high in the white. |
The first egg yolk (top) is much deeper yellow and the white is much firmer than the commercial egg (bottom). These two eggs were put into a batter for banana bread. |
