Still, it’s a start, and considering that it was less than a week ago that she produced her first one, she’s not doing too badly.
Incidentally, after discovering that WordPress has a plugin that will generate graphs automatically, I’ve started a permanent egg production page, which will be updated every time I find more data sources in one of the nesting bays. Pearl and Queenie’s eggs will probably be indistinguishable (they’re the same breed), but Vi and Ida’s should look distinctive enough to be able to be plotted separately, at least when they get around to producing any.
Is the second one as dark as it appears on my screen? Different from the others?
Trick of the light: they look identical side by side. Similarly, the three eggs at the back are also pretty much identical. I suspect I was casting a shadow on the right-hand side when taking the picture.
This isn’t an extra egg, by the way – it’s the one you found yesterday, next to the one laid on Sunday.
