Wow, we have really appreciated our girls and their delicious eggs, but never realized they were worth their weight in gold. Eggs today at the local super market were $2.59 per half dozen.
WTH!
While the girls have slowed egg production a bit during these winter days, we are still getting 1/2 dozen per week. Interestingly enough, even though I have been eating more eggs than before we got the girls, my cholesterol etc. is still OK. Also switched to real butter at the same time, used sparingly, it has had no effect either.
Another bit of chicken lover trivia: We recently replaced our carpet in the living room and dining room with tile. Why you ask? So that it is easier for us to have our chickens come on in the house. Well, it is also easier with a muddy foot doggie too, but primarily it is for the girls. Now they come right in and join me in the kitchen watching my every move to see if I have a treat for them. So now, I have three pairs of eyes on me when I am cooking. We are nuts, I know.
