First egg

Ever since we got the chickens, we've been wondering when exactly eggs would show up. We got our answer yesterday, sometime during the pounding rain.

It's a small egg, but seems very solid. We'll be switching them to layer feed, and I need to get to work on some nest boxes and the coop.
