Hooray! I can’t wait until tomorrow to share this! The winter slump is over, and the ten or eleven remaining hens are starting to lay again. Mandi and Seth (the weekday gatherers) report that every day this week there are more.
Buckbeak is very proud of his remaining ladies.
Today’s 7 is pretty darned good! The owl deterrent measures seem to have helped, and we think it went to other hunting grounds.
We’re the big mamas. Ready to make you some eggs! Thanks for feeding us all winter!
Now maybe we can get a few more. We’re still going to do more coop work. But I’m so glad they’re out of the winter doldrums.

One thought on “Egg Production UP!”
Poor Seth. But happy chickens! He was so worried since they didn’t lay any eggs today. Then I told him you had already fed. They got fed again though.
