Eggs
March 13th, 2010We have seven resident chickens here at the farm. One rooster and six laying hens. With warmer weather and longer days the chickens have started laying again. This morning I headed out to the coop to let them out and collect the eggs, and there I found two brown eggs waiting for me. They were warm. I can’t say I’ve ever collected warm eggs before. It was kinda cool and kinda wierd. But, that’s about as fresh as they get! (We ate them scrambled with asparagus and cheese, bacon and Gimme Lean…yum!)

warm eggs does sound weird…. Have you guys had any more problems with animals getting to your hens? I saw a great article in Mother Earth News about guinea fowl controlling squash bugs and ticks. I can’t remember which issue though.
