Using a photo from the archives today, because it’s raining and I don’t want to get wet taking photos of bedraggled hens. I much prefer to use this photo from a few months ago, with their fluffy bottoms!
Hens must know that Spring is in the air because we’ve had the most productive month ever! In the 31 days of March, four hens laid a total of 112 eggs !!! Yes, that’s right! A whopping 112 eggs, all perfectly formed, no tiny misfires, and none with soft shells. 112 eggs that the husband and I couldn’t eat, just the two of us, so I’ve been distributing eggs, literally by the dozen, to neighbours!
I love this photo! You might be able to make a few extra pennies by selling those eggs at the roadside or to the local market. 😄
we’re actually expecting long term guests early May so I reckon our egg consumption will increase and there will be fewer for neighbours.
Congratulations on a record month! That sure is a lot of eggs! So sweet of you to share with your neighbors. I am sure they loved them.
112 eggs Awesome! Congratulations on your hens productive month. Your neighbors are probably thanking their lucky stars to have you as their neighbor.
Well done those girls! Lucky neighbours!
Such cute fluffy bottoms! We are distributing too; the girls are giving us 5-6 daily and I can’t keep up!
They have been busy girls 🐔
Wow, your girls have been hard at work. I’m looking forward to mine filling out a bit and becoming more matronly; at present they’re still rather gawky and teenage looking!
won’t be long now ^^
Fabulous! Our neighbor’s girls have been going gangbusters too. Luckily I have a ton of bakery orders so I can take 10 doz at a time from him
10 dozen !!! goodness me, your neighbour must have a lot of hens!
