I forgot to tell you all. We had 7 eggs today from our chickens.
I took some pictures and wrote about it on my blog.
You know, I don't think I could say that to just any group of people. Most folks would think I was a little crazy about having some little ol eggs. Glad you all are here to share the enjoyment.

I saw the pictures on your blog, cute and yummy all at the same time. Very rewarding when you can get the food from your own yard.

LOL! That's great, especially this time of year! Up here, we'd have no eggs without lights and timers.
I remember when my first eggs came; I was so excited! Thanks for the memory. I sure miss my hens. |

Lindy,
I think it's wonderful. I can't wait until I can get my own hens and coop. For now, I visit the "girls" at my friend's house and feed them when she leaves town.

That is neat. My Mom and my Dad's grandmother raised chickens when I was little.
I remember holding the new little yellow chicks. How cute and soft they were.
I used to love sitting on the porch and listening to the chickens.
Mom would get brown eggs. Sometimes , they had double yokes in them too. pinkroses |

Lindy,
I love your excitement over such a little thing. It's very sweet. I still have a photo of the first little brown eggs laid by our hens over 20 years ago! How sappy is that?!  Congratulations on having LAYING hens!
