Feb. 20


These are fresh eggs. They are beautiful. The shells vary; sometimes very light brown, some darker, and some are bluish green. They taste really good. The yolks are very yellow. The hens scratch about, eating Layena and scraps. They love broccoli and pumpkin. They don't make much noise except when they're laying an egg. Isn't it an amazing thing, how those eggs, all full of protein and good stuff (yeah, there's a bit of cholesterol but not bad if you eat them in moderation) pop out of the backside of a chicken?! And they come out all clean and dry. It's kind of a miracle.
