These hens are now starting to lay. So far we see maybe 4 hens laying. Could be more and they are not laying every day. But so far, so good!

Sure is a lotta cackling going on!!

Hi Di, That's exciting! I love the idea of really fresh eggs. Glad it's working out for you.

Yes, exciting indeed. The flock, as a whole, is slow in laying. Some breeds take a while to mature.

This brings back a lot of memories. I remember gathering eggs for my grandmother.

I love the gathering and talking to our Roo and hens. They have such personalities!

But they'll love anyone with scratch in a bucket!
