Egg Surprise

On Monday morning I tried to clean out the coop before school, I really did.  But Fitz was in her nesting box and we don't like to bother the chickens when they are depositing the goods.  So, I left a note for Papa Hen to scoop the coop if it was vacant when he got home from the gym.  Later that morning I got a call describing this.

It was a big egg.  Take another look.

And another.

And another.

Thank you, Fitz Chicken.

Scrambled Eggs

We are enjoying the eggs that the chickens of Red Door Coop provide for us.  So are many of our friends and family members.  Yesterday for breakfast we had scrambled eggs with homegrown tomatoes and squash.  There were some leftovers, so we fed them to the chickens.  Yes.  That's what I said.  It is good for egg production to feed chickens eggshells and eggs in forms they will not relate at all to the eggs they lay every day.  It gives them protein and calcium.

  Hmmmm.  This looks interesting.

Yummy!
