Ida's First Eggs
Ida, our Cuckoo Maran, actually laid her first egg about a week ago. She seems to have gotten a slow start because today she laid her second one. I'm sure she'll kick in more regularly soon. She's the oldest out of 6, the last to start laying, and the most meek and shy of them all.

YoooHoooo IDA you go girl.
She will catch on about being regular I am sure.
What makes her eggs speckled?
I don't know what makes her eggs speckled. Internet info said they would be chocolate brown colored as in dark brown. So I was shocked when they were speckled, but they are definitely pretty.

This is the first time I saw a brown egg. I'm amazed!
Ooh! I'm planning to get a cuckoo maran this year (and a couple araucanas). These photos make me so excited!
