They can't be TOO hard. Joshua has had great success.
He asked if you need eggs. They have laid well ALL winter.

We refreshed our stock this past fall, so we didn't get many eggs over the winter. Yesterday out of 8 hens I got 6 eggs. The silkies I don't count as much because they hardly ever lay eggs... LOL

I just finished my Sunday breakfast and yup - disappointment again, like every other Sunday. Store bought eggs = no flavor.
Someday I'll have chickens again!

The hubby went into town today and bought 32 meat birds!!!!! My chickens gave me 4 eggs today. Out of 12 I guess that's better than nothing.

I got caught up with some good friends (chicken enablers) placing a mail order for chicks... the next thing I knew... I had 20 on the way!!!

It started so that I could get a specific breed - and the hatchery only sells in batches of 24 - so I got a couple of friends to go in with me ..... I don't know what happened.... For only 4 more, I could have just ordered one batch myself.

Now - sometime in April - there will be 72 chicks at the Roanoake post office
(my luck... they'll ALL BE MALE)
By the way CM91 - those little puff balls are ADORABLE! Are they your first chickens?
