The hens tend to lay most of their eggs during the day. We usually find one or two first thing, when we let them out from their coop and into their daytime run.
I washed this morning's two eggs using water from our rain barrel.
The weather report tells me that it may go up to the 70's this morning. I headed out before 8 a.m. in the crisp Autumn air, padding along in my slippers and plaid bathrobe. My favorite Roster Cogburn walking next to the Chicken Crossing sign
It seems like a miracle to me when I can make a morning egg sandwich, using my own eggs and Bruce's homemade bread.
Our eggs are mostly shades of brown and white. One of our hens is an rare German breed. We have no idea how we ended up with her. She is named Fraulein Hen. Her eggs are very pale green. She laid two of them today.
