Yeah, fortunately last winter was pretty mild. The weather's been a bit strange and a lot wetter than normal. Typically when summers are wetter it carries over to winter with a wet & cold winter. Snow doesn't really melt off until spring melt here so having several feet of snow can be a PITA all...
I spent 16 years in Phoenix (moved last Christmas eve) , don't miss the summers. But I have a feeling I'm gonna miss the winters this winter.
4/5 eggs today.
3/5 the last few day. Don't know what happened with the forth that was giving me eggs. Maybe it's because I haven't been giving them steak lately. :lau Or maybe the switch from Flock Raiser to a 16% protein layer.
Edited: Guess I just had to complain, just got a forth. :D
4/5 thus far today, including our first jumbo! :celebrate
Also a tiny egg, so maybe the last holdout just laid and I'll get a fifth later today. :fl
Edited: No such luck with a fifth egg. o_O
Been in Denver (200 miles north) since Tuesday (got back last night). Had four eggs waiting for me, plus the one I collected before leaving Tuesday morning. By 10 am this morning I had three, which is a bit unusual, the third is usually layed after 12 pm. Maybe I'll get a fouth or even fifth...
Next time (hopefully won't be a next time) you might try feeding the chickens the invader. Pretty ironic when the one attempting to eat your chickens gets eaten by those same chickens. :lau
