That's Great Grandmother in rural Illinois. And if you didn't notice, she is surrounded by chickens. I can't even imagine how many eggs she got a day. We are getting two a day right now and they sure add up quickly in the fridge. When we are getting four a day, there will be many to share.

This is the first egg that Bill laid after she arrive at Red Door Coop. The scale was a gift from our antique-collecting family. We use it every day!
Go ahead and compare that egg to the WHOPPER that Fitz laid today. We still can't believe it!
The egg she laid today is on the left. All the other eggs are Fitz and Bill's normal sized eggs. What would Great Grandmother say about this one? Perhaps today's enormous egg will be kept as an heirloom for future Red Door Coopsters. HA!

Yes! An easter egg! Do the wonderful traditional Ukrainian wax and food colouring design! and then you can save it forever (after you make the pin hole and drain out the innards :)
This is pretty fun and funny, Allison! I can't believe you didn't tell me all about this in Chicago!!
Hey there--Although the coop was finished when we were in Chicago, we didn't have the chickens yet. The birds didn't join us until after the 4th of July.
