I keep them in seperate rows in the egg carton, so I know how many eggs I get from each one.
(We ate some of Laverne's & Shirley's for breakfast)
The shell was very thin and when I broke it open, there was no yolk inside. It was added to their afternoon treat of corn, beans and carrots. She will probably still give me an egg once in while
though, but I'll be getting more hens in October.

Poor old girl is getting to the end of her egg production. But that's OK - she won't be made into a Sunday dinner! She can live out the rest of her life amusing me!
It was a misfire. I have a couple of grape vines my neighbor gave me one year, and now they are packed with grapes. I love to pick as many bunches as I can hold and then walk down to the coop and throw them in to the chickens. It's like candy to them, and they go crazy.
ReplyDeleteMine like them too and isn't it fun to watch them scramble to see who gets the most? Charlie doesn't join them - he wants to be hand fed!
DeletePoor Lucy...
ReplyDeleteShe is spoiled rotten, Mamahen - I put hay down where she like to sun herself and bites Laverne & Shirley if they try to get her spot!
