3 eggs!! In the nests, as hoped for. Three in one morning, at 5 1/2 months. Those chickens were so smart to figure out where they were supposed to lay them. The eggs are small, that is as the book says could happen at first. I am happy.
Sorry to post the same day as Sara's lovely post. But, I figure everyone wants to hear this news. Even you Sam??

so how do they taste?
Yay!
I will wait until others lay their eyes on them first!
I can hardly wait! I feel that our butter will not be up to the standard. Let's make butter.
Congratulations!
We got a fourth this afternoon!
Congratulations!
Hmmm...maybe we should get some hens...
If you can figure out how to get just hens, I'd like to know about it.
We had a rooster that decided to try some of the dog's food and that was the end of him.
Kly-Jane got all hens by choosing the Sexling variety of chicken-apparently so-called because they are easier to "sex". However, they are not as picturesque as Mom's.Also, Mom, are you really wanting Don to murder Iggy?
I think that Teddy should retain the name given him by those who DON'T wish him dead.
OK, Teddy it is. I was not attacked by him today. I was using my walking stick. He stayed close behind me, but did to fight me. Could he recognize that as a power implement? It was Ilze's idea. Do we eat murdered food?
i think if you kill him, you should eat him.
Yea, we should, but we will do neither. Teddy and I have come to an understanding, and unless he tries to kill me again, we will enjoy each other. He is tending his hens. I have come to understand that, and when I go out with my walking stick, he leaves me alone. As Kly says, he is alright in the hen house and their fenced yard.
That's good
