Look good don't they? My first two eggs! Yes, of course I can count... the bottom egg is a large egg from the supermarket. I put it there to get a comparison of size for what my two little hens are laying. Not bad!
The thing I'm finding comical with all this egg stuff is that Gertrude lays a lighter color egg each day and just a little later in the day than Henrietta. Henri's are always darker shelled, and slightly rounder than Gerti's. It's actually fun to see which one has given me the latest gift.
I decided to crack open the first two eggs the next morning and had them scrambled. Everyone keeps telling me that "fresh eggs" taste so much better than "store bought" eggs and I have to agree. The texture is also different. When scrambled, the fresh ones have a "firmer" consistency and aren't as watery as the ones from the store.
