Laying an egg. In pictures!
My blackback began laying 10 days early. I got some pics of the laying of one of the eggs.

8 eggs total. Great veins in all of them. One is a slight boob egg but aside from the newsprint they all look healthy.
Pairing was to a blackback cinnamon in the fall but earlier in the summer she was also put to a champagne and a queen bee so there's a chance she may have retained something from those pairings as well. We shall know around April 20th or so :)
Here is deflated momma..

It's funny because the only reason I caught her laying was because I opened her tub to change it to white paper towels (to avoid the newsprint thing) and there she was laying! Oh well. Lol!!

Great pics and thanks for sharing.
So many threads talk about not rotating the eggs once laid from thier original downside position. The newsprint on the eggs would seem to indicate that those sides were originally face down when they were laid but are now face up. Is that correct and if so, what prompted you to rotate their position for the egg crate?
