Egg Shots.

I saved these from my broody hen.

Suffice to say, she is not a good broody hen, as these are the only two survivors of the eggs she was sitting on.

I'm not sure what day they are on, but we have swimmy chicks!

I do believe the dark spot you see in each egg is the eye. If you look closely you can also see some of the veins.




Egg #2...



I hope they hatch! A surprise is inside. These are the first bantams I've ever had, and the guy who gave them to me didn't know which hens laid them. He had all of his bantam breeds in breeder pens by type and coloring, so they will be purebred. I am hoping for a pair. I really want a pair of Sebrights. The Sebright roosters are hilarious.

Let me google you a picture...

Ah, here ya go...



When they crow it almost sounds like a loud whistle. They are about the size of a Coke can when full grown.
