Finally we've got eggs!!

Hi all
Don't know if anyone remembers, but I got 2 Orpingtons, a Plymouth Rock & a Buff Sussex at the end of June of between 10 and 13 weeks, according to what the seller said. Well, after a VERY long wait we've finally had our first eggs this week from the Plymouth Rock! Not just that, but we've had 4 eggs in 5 days from her. After all the time I spent worrying I'm over the moon . Not only that but the eggs have all been perfectly built & have weighed 41g, 42g, 45g and today a whopping 56g!
So to all those of you still waiting for eggs, it's definitely worth the wait, though I haven't actually tried one yet!

Well done - it gives me hope! We got our Maran bantams mid July, at 14 weeks old, and still nothing....

Eggsellent! Those are probably small eggs compared to what she'll be laying next year too my barred rock laid a couple of eggs last year that topped 100g!!
