“The real things haven't changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong.”

Monday Musings...Eggs
I still have my five chickens. And they're laying four or five eggs a day. They're great girls...most of the time.
That's a dandy egg, isn't it?
Wait! What the heck?!
I have a slacker out there! Someone laid a miniature egg yesterday!
Do you think there's a miniature yolk if we crack it open?
That small egg probably means that your gal is about ready to stop laying and is going into her moult period. They lay small eggs at the beginning and end of their laying period. The yolk will probably be about the same size as the bigger egg but there will be less white. Nice eggs, by the way! But ya oughta see mine! I have a lot of colored eggs. Green, pink, brown, tan, beige and a few white.
Cute egg..what Connie said..going into moult..feed them some cat food fo extra protein they cannot make new feathers and lay eggs all at the same time:)
Nice eggs!
