Last thursday we got our first egg from one of our hens. Tay and I were chopping wood behind the house and this one hen was having a fit on the back porch, so we went up to see what she was doing, we couldn't see anything wrong so we went back to chopping wood. About a half hour later she was having a fit again so we went up to check and found a little egg in our compost bin.
Over the next few days we were disappointed not to find more eggs, but yesterday we found a hen in the coop, in one of the nest boxes Ed made, so we kept our hopes up and sure enough she laid another egg. Then this morning there were two more - yippy! Very soon we will be getting enough eggs to eliminate that item off the grocery bill!
