The days are getting longer, we’ve had some warm weather and the chickens are laying . . a lot!
During the summer, when it’s so hot, I go out several times a day and give them fresh, cool water and get the eggs. For the first time ever since getting chickens 8 years ago, I totally forgot to get eggs one day last week.
Besides those, there were 6 eggs under a hen. I wasn’t sure if she was sitting on them or if she was laying another egg, so I left those. She wasn’t sitting and it was cool enough that I grabbed those eggs the next morning.
Lots of eggs these days! I share with friends but we use a lot of eggs and I’m so happy to have fresh eggs from happy chickens!

Those are some beautiful eggs. Wish I had gotten eggs when we moved to our current location and was 17 years younger. We certainly have the space for them but unfortunately not the energy especially in the winter time. We also have a resident redtail hawk or two that loves to fly over our property often.

That is certainly an assortment of eggs in size an color.
