It has been months and not a single egg. Then there was an occasional egg. One egg was wonderful but not enough for our family by a long shot. Now imagine my joy when there were six, yes six lovely, fresh, delicious eggs from my girls. That was a few days ago and now there are eight eggs a day. Oh the joy. The poached eggs, the fried eggs, the omelettes, the quiches and frittatas!
Our simple coop my wonderful husband designed and built. Crazy as it sounds I love the anticipation as I walk out in the morning - what will my darling girls have for my this morning?
I know the feeling. My girls are laying pretty good but when it's cold they get grumpy. I have been giving them lots of treats in the winter to keep them happy. lol
ReplyDeleteI share your joy...Sadly, my chickens quit a month ago...too dark...we need to light their shed.
ReplyDeleteOur hens are a bit quiet at the moment, I also love it when they are back in business again. cheers Marie
