I just went out to gather eggs and discovered a little pee wee in one of the nests! Isn’t it adorable? I’m not sure if it is one of our standard breed pullets just coming into her laying maturity, or if one of our little bantams might have laid her first cackleberry! I’m very excited at that prospect. Proportionately, it does seem rather large for those little Silver Duckwing or Mille Fleurs to lay, but I’ve heard that they do lay large for their size!
What ever will I do with this tiny egg? Perhaps I’ll serve our son “Lilliputian Breakfast” this weekend! Hmm. I’ve read that some boil and pickle their Bantam eggs, which seems like a good use to me. Mmm…bite-sized pickled eggs. Of course, I’ll have to have enough to justify that, and with just this one so far…I’m back to the hilarity of watching our son’s response to miniature eggs. I’ll have to make proportionately correct toast, too.
I’ve also been working on composing a Frequently Asked Questions page about our eggs for a good portion of the day today. I hope that I’ve covered the questions well, but I regard those sort of things as living documents – if there is something in need of updating, correction, or adding new information, I’m all ears.
Have you already tried our eggs? Would you mind providing a customer appreciation photo? We’d love to see pictures of what you’ve made with our eggs! I’ll add a section to the website featuring these, and if you have a website of your own, I’ll be happy to link to it in the photo credits. Email them to trase at, well, our domain name. 🙂
