MARANTHA!! Even so, come LORD JESUS!!!
As I went out to put the chickies to bed tonight, I saw that one of my girls had laid her first egg!!
This is the FLOCK's FIRST EGG!!
How exciting!! They were already sleeping and I didn't want to get them all stirred up, so I left it there for the night.
They are only 4 and a half months old~~~~AND it was a fairly large egg!
Oh my I will have to give them treats tomorrow!! I will give them some of the crushed pig fat that I made my "experimental lard" out of. They should enjoy that immensely!!
Crazy>>>I can hardly wait for tomorrow to feed them!!
I have raised them from baby day old chicks and they are very tame. They come to me and literally "ask" to be picked up and petted.
Everyday I gather some huge bundles of various green plants for them to eat. They LOVE the greens!! Their FAVORITE is mint!!
I have pretty much decimated the mint now, so this morning they got a gigantic bundle of ragweed! They ate it, but just don't like it like they do the mint>>>>but they all come rushing to the front of the pen when they see me coming with a big armful of greens on the way! I have a large pasture area but don't want to let them wander out there by themselves as I lost many chickens out there before>>>got lots of other critters out there too!!
Well, I need to get some sleep so I can go out and drink coffee with my girls when they wake up!!
