I'm happy to confirm both chooks are now laying eggs! (whew, no roosters)
And we had Twinga over for breakfast this morning to share in our egg bounty. Two eggs each for the three of us: Twinga's were sunny-side up, mine were over-easy and Left Coast Mom's were scrambled (just like she likes them). I'm still amazed that these eggs are coming from our own chickens, and I wonder how long it'll be before the novelty wears off.
Thinking back over the anatomical changes that ZsuZsu's gone through in the last ten days, I realize I need to take some pictures to show just how mature the girls are looking now.
While they're producing perfectly shaped (but small) eggs, they're starting to look like full-grown hens.
And to think it was just five months ago that I could hold them each in the palm of my hand with room to spare.

Congrats! Glad to hear that you're officially "in the eggs". Can't wait to see photos of the newly grown up girls. The eggs might lose their novelty, but you won't lose your appreciation of them.
