    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    Thanks. Been doing much reading and have come to the conclusion that there just isn't enough light. Just found it concerning since my 1st 3 yrs weren't this abrupt. So hopefully they'll start laying again in the next 2 - 5 wks. Hate the thought of buying eggs again

    Pest control and chickens

    not a lot in the garden as I'm planing much of it late, but they're there. Most of my concern is my elderberries, destroying them🤬😭. Can I put Permethrin on late in the eve like Sevin and not kill bees
