An egg, an egg!

My kingdom for an egg!





It's been a few weeks since the last egg.  This one was over looked yesterday.  It froze and cracked through the night, but a what a wonderful surprise to find today!  This has been our shortest winter moult/loss of production by far!  The first year we were without fresh farm eggs for nearly 8 months!

Keep your cow in your chicken coop!  A remarkable source of heat!
Deep bedding- ie, not cleaning out the chicken coop, and continually adding more hay, also helps the birds keep warm.  Keep 'em coming ladies!

  1. Congratulations! I get a giddy feeling when something eggish happens at my house. Now, I need a cow for the coop. What? They come in the house, so they should lay...lol.
