Eggcellent


Our girls are growing up!  For the last couple of weeks I've been regularly checking for eggs.  Finally, this morning, I found two-- one in the coop, and one under a tree.  I suspect both eggs are from the same hen, as she is large, in charge, and apparently an early bloomer...

The other ladies are not far behind, and will likely start popping eggs out in the next week or so.  Each hen will lay about 6 times a week, which translates to 3-4 fresh eggs per day for us!

Finding the first egg was a pretty thrilling farm moment.  I feel quite proud of our little ladies...
