  1. You have some lovely girls there!
    Expect a few double-yolkers the first month.
    Farm-fresh free-range eggs are the best.
    I miss my chickens.

  3. WAAA HOOO Christina!!! Isn't it just the neatest thing to go out and see they've gifted you?? I feel that way everyday! I know they decrease their laying "output" by 20% each year...so i've been told by a chicken rancher...and this year seemed to be following the rule, then yesterday, in this crazy heat we are having...I got 5 ! Haven't had 5 in a day since April!
    Hope your trip to FL was wonderful! You came home b4 the storm!

  4. Yippee! I just love the very first eggs! They always have such thick shells and are so small. Beautiful and unique aren't they?

    Congratulations!
