Grays Maiden Egg

Gray laid her first egg today! I was beginning to think it would never happen, but today it did. It took her awhile because the reds kept bullying her while she was trying to get in the nest, she finally wedged herself between the nest and the wall to get some peace. (She is a small bird, a cross between a Silkie and Silver Laced Wyandotte.) The egg on the left is Grays maiden egg, and it is the size of a silkie egg. The one on the right in Charlotte's (a Rhode Island Red) for comparison.
