Found this little gem yesterday. I have several older EE’s with only one laying these days so I can only assume the Easter Bunny is practicing!!!

I love the fairy farts! I decided last year I was going to start saving and dessicating them all for decoration, so of course since then I've got ONE. Could take a while to get a basket full ;)

My ladies are all bantam so that's pretty much my entire production line.

I love that egg ....hell i love eggs period but those treasures are so wonderful when they happen...I only have one EE hen and she lays a fairly dark olive coloured egg...she is the only hen i have with a name and appropriately her name is "Olive"... She doesn't lay often...at the height of the season she was maybe 3-4 per week...she shut down last November totally at a year and a quarter old and nothing til about two weeks ago with two eggs in two days...got me all twitterpated but that lasted, well, not long as nada since...she's a beautiful bird for a part time freeloader...lol... :running-chicken:

I love those first eggs too. It never gets old.
I have some idea of how you feel, @TomK : I have 6 hens and only two are laying: Deanie and Biscuit, my two youngest, who were hatched last July. They are both stellar layers - pretty much an egg from each of them every day. The two old girls, 7 and 8 years old respectively, have earned their retirement (my oldest girl, a Silkie, just quit in January), The 4.5 year-old EO quit last August, and the 3.5 year-old Ameraucana quit in November. No sign of either of them starting up again. So two freeloaders - 1/3 of my flock living the good life while contributing nothing. At least the EO is a friendly girl, but the Ameraucana is a turd.

Oh my that poor bunny, and of course the dog mumbles "Nope, haven't seen a thing. Probably won't come this year."

Little Jack Russell I used to know would disappear into the bush and come back out with a bunny! Gosh she was fast.
