5 eggs from 6 hens.  Yesterday was only 3 though.  Most days we've been averaging 5.  And last week we got one that was a double-yolker...looked like a goose egg!

2 papillons, 1 giant pomeranian, 1 cat...

I collected 7 from the 9 hens laying today, maybe more b/c I didn't check under the broodies before I final head count tonight (they like to sit on the poor girls and lay their eggs)
