EGGS!

Remember those chicks that were hatching back in June? They started laying eggs about 3 weeks ago. Now we are getting about 10-12 eggs a day. At first they were very tiny and then got to be a more respectable size. Occasionally, we get a surprise.

How do you like that egg? It dwarfs the other eggs! I've been waiting to take a picture before cracking it open to see what's inside. Maybe it's a dinosaur!

And do you see that little green egg? We have some hens that lay green ones. Each day is a surprise.

Ah...simple living. ;)

And come March, we will have a few more layers. These chicks hatched just before Halloween. There are 7, but we don't know how many are roosters. These chicks came from our old chickens. We gathered some eggs from those guys and then gave them away (they were only producing 0-3 eggs a day).
