Yesterday morning I let the chickens out, and discovered 2 small brown eggs in the corner of the coop closest to the nest boxes (so close!) I ecstatically ran into the house shouting for Naomi to bring the camera. I was suspect that they were both from that morning, so I decided to get the fork and sift through the bedding. I found a third egg. That evening when I went to close the coop, I found a fourth. It was only about 4 PM today that I found a fifth. I believe it's The Grump that's laying them. I need to get her to start laying in the nest box, but that's a project for later on in the week. I'll try making a step/perch to transition into the boxes, and moving eggs when I find them. I hope the others aren't far behind! The large egg in the picture was a double-yolker too!
I brought some pizza boxes and shredded paper down to the garden today. We've eaten a lot of pizza in the last week. I finally got a chance to bring the camera down to the garden as well, although we are getting close to looking for a new camera.
Pizza boxes featured just right of center.
Some Red Russian Kale seedlings, growing slowly but surely.
A shot of the inside of the hoophouse.
The three larger plants are Romanesca Broccoli.
