35 last night and 42 today and its been raining and will continue to rain tonight. The girls still gave us eight eggs today even with wet feet.

 

[what did I do]

my hens have been inside for the last 2 weeks due to bad winter weather. Yesterday my chickens knocked the egg basket down and I lost at least a dz eggs. I got less than 2 dz yesterday out of 60 hens. I think they can go outside today to play but they won't stay out long due to the weather. I'm also thinking that the eggs under my broody hen died. She was found sitting on another nest yesterday

Been away so I had to read several posts to get up to date. Weather is mostly chilly here...egg production staying pretty much the same...
Until today when it appears that at least 3 of our new RSL have laid eggs. There was one in the box is morning but I think it was from yesterday, it was pretty cold. High today of 35
3/6 RSL and so far 6/11 of our year old gals! But the day isn't over yet!
