Which came first ....the chicken or the egg?

Well, in my case it was the four lovely unamed chickens that arrived about 8 weeks ago. Every day I've feed them twice a day, thrown silver beet into their run, topped up their water.......and waited. And waited......and waited some more...... Well yesterday I was rewarded with one very small, very brown little egg. Yes, the first egg has arrived. I was beginning to wonder if they would ever lay. I guess it's like when you're pregnant the first time.......waiting and wondering if you're ever going to have a baby- totally illogical, of course you are.
I ran inside  to show Mr SFP. I think he was wondering what was happening, but he quickly "got it". Hopefully now more will follow, but I'm sure I'll be just as excited. I had to laugh though- I usually buy size 6 or 7 eggs and this one is more like a small size 3. Too cute to eat LOL.  TTFN Mrs SFP XX
Flashback to when the girls arrived.
