First Egg!

Well after all of the commotion with the chicks, I decided to check on Max and Gold (the hens). I checked the nesting box and lo and behold I found an egg! Last night was the first time I started using a lamp in their coop to see if the extra light will help them lay. I got a timer so that the light goes on at 5:00 am and off at 8:00 am after sunrise and then it will go on again at 5:00 pm and off at 8:00 pm. They really seemed to like the light in the coop. I am just so excited that we got our first egg. Here are some pictures of Hannah holding the egg. She was the one that helped me discover it.
