It's just a regular old farm here....




The chickens are doing their job and producing lots of yummy eggs for us. The eggs are much smaller than store-bought eggs. I've heard as the chickens get older, their eggs might get bigger. The yolk color is scrumptious. It's a dark yellow-gold. And the taste....yummmm.

We had a mishap with one of the original chickens, so we've added three more to our flock. Say hello to Daisy, Lola and Maria.

I love the fact that you are getting your own eggs. Have you read anything about the Mitford family in England during the early 20th century? Their mother kept lots of chickens and sold eggs - supplementing the household income. The youngest daughter (Debo)became a duchess (Devonshire), and still loves to raise chickens.
