First Pam was yelling, then she summoned Opie and he started yelling. Then Bark, Hawk, and Babayaga joined Opie in the yelling while Pam marched about and inspected the nesting boxes. I had a feeling she might be getting ready to lay, but at the same time, she's only 16 weeks. Two hours later my husband walked in with egg in hand, asking who would lay a brown egg.
Our hobby farm's very first egg ever! It's so pretty too! We are over the moon right now. Pam did an excellent job. We couldn't be more proud.

She took a day off and laid an equally pretty one today. She's such a good girl!

i have raised chickens for over 15 years, 16-18 weaks is about right for their first egg. however judging by the side of that egg you showed they have probably already laid one egg prior to this, i have seen occasions where a chickens first egg was that size but most of the time the first egg or two comes out about the size of a large marble. keep them fed and lots of water and they will continue to lay an egg a day, the older and happier your chickens are the larger the eggs you will get, my current record for largest egg is 118 grams (for comparison a normal jumbo egg starts around 71 grams).

Wow, that is an impressive egg! I can't imagine it felt the best to lay. I've been hunting around in the yard and random nooks and crannies to see if I can find any other eggs starting the day I found that one. I've found nothing yet, but if they were laid outside we have plenty of mice, foxes, weasels, and just the other chickens who may have eaten them. We've gotten 4 eggs in the last 5 days. Water is definitely something we're keeping up on. It's been hitting the 80s here in Alabama, so they've got two smaller waterers with the big main one and more juicy treats.
