We have all 8 hens laying eggs now!
The most eggs we've ever gotten in one day is 8, but that doesn't happen often.
We had our first double yolk egg!
We have a hen (Whistle) that is very loud when she's ready to lay her egg! She's actually woken me up in the morning squawking!
All of the hens lay their eggs in the nesting box, except one (Ginger) and she lays hers right inside the coop.
We just changed their feed over the weekend to help with egg quality, and I feel like I can already tell a difference!
In other chicken news, we are planning to add to our flock this coming spring. We are thinking we will get 2-3 more of two different breeds. Allie declares chickens are the greatest pets ever, so if you have ever considered getting any, you should do it! And we are hoping to share eggs with friend and family this spring, but so far we've been using every egg we get!
