Rachel it is

So, this morning the kids went out to check the nesting box, only to disrupt poor Rachel, our smaller black Australorp. Alex came back in and pronounced that it was "like Rachel is constipated". She went back in the nesting box and emerged ten minutes later or so, and Alex gathered the still-warm egg. It was quite exciting for all of us! Rachel is the smallest of the three and the sweetest--which unfortunately translates to the lowest on the pecking order, as well.
