And this is what Mr. Moon found in the hen house when he put Moana up for the night. 
A beautiful, perfect, dark brown speckled egg. 

My heart is happy.

  2. A beautiful Jumbo sized egg! Well done Moana. She must be happily settled enough to begin laying again.

    1. I think you're right. She may feel safer here.

    1. It's a big egg. I've seen bigger but it's pretty big.

  5. Wonderful. Now you are allowed to hope for more - normal sized - eggs once this monster is away. Did it contain 2 yolks?

    1. I haven't cracked it yet. I doubt it has two yolks. Some hens just lay very large eggs.

  8. Yay Moana! Maybe she just needed a new environment to form her eggs properly.

    1. I think she was stressed out in town. Of course being fifty feet from the railroad track is so relaxing...

  9. That's a gorgeous egg, and these days, it's worth more than gold. I've seen you at Shadows & Light so I've come to visit.

    Love,

  11. This ranks as the best news I’d read yesterday! I cried for each of your beautiful girls and roosters whose lives were so cruelly terminated before their time. We all got to know snd love them through your eyes and heart. I so hope Moana is able to live her own precious life until its natural end.
