FINALLY! Getting eggs again. Yesterday, I got 12. Yep, 12 eggs! I was a little in shock and counted a few times. But yeah, 12 eggs in one day from these gals. I have a front tribe and a back tribe. The back tribe is laying in the cat room in a dog crate. And the front tribe actually lays in the eggs nesters but also in the hay racks. But nice clean pretty eggs. Already sold 3 dozen so far with other people wanting some. I did start feeding them layer feed. They are almost done with their 2nd bag.
So we are back in the egg business again!

13 today!! One of the eggs was cracked though. So to the dogs it goes. I need to go on an egg hunt to see of some are laying in other places. Whenever I hear them singing I go look to see where they came from and check it out for eggs. But nothing. They must just be happy.
I hope you get plenty of eggs too soon, Hosanna.
Marly, do you have chickens?

My 7 girls have been laying all winter... more or less. There were a couple weeks when I only got one or two a day though. My four fall babies should start laying this spring too; so excited! Then I'll be getting almost a dozen a day also! SO impatient for Spring to arrive!
