Dear friend, together, we can think of something! Homeless missions, food drop off points, something. scramble some up with the shells too, and feed it back to the flock? It's what I do sometimes!

Or call a pastor at any local church, and explain the situation. Seems, most of them are very understanding. Give it a try!

Calls are coming in now for eggs. Everyone knows I wash eggs on Sunday mornings.

I am giving some to 2 neighbors and sold some to a longtime customer called in the last 20 minutes.

I have many elderly neighbors that really should stay out of the stores so I am happy to help them.

That leaves me with 2 packs of 18 from this morning and one pack we are using out of.

Of course I will be right up there in a few days.

I see what you mean. I think it is control with some of it.
I
I think we need to get rolling back to living like we used to. Only people are not so stupid that it means
throwing masks away and not maintaining the 6 foot rule, washing your hands and not touching your face. . If that can maintained by reasonably intelligent people who want to Protect their own lives, then we should be able to be trusted to keeping that criteria going. And it would take a very stupid person not to protect their own life.

We have all spent 33+ days in quarantine because the powers that be said it's the right thing to do. If you look at the streets on the tv you can see how people are trusting in their President and science experts' guidelines . Media and morning shows can help you hate the President, but life does go on for the 50% or more people that have faith in him .Hopefully I'm not being I hope I'm not being political . . I do not mean to. I am just trying to show how life Is at this time re: Corona Virus. Like how Covid19 has changed our lives and also how it has changed your minds, your thought processes , and changed how you see the world . It changes your attitudes and thinking of the future. It will change a lot in our heads too.

Nice to see a post on topic!

My chickens are a bit ticked off today. The snow has melted but the uncovered part of the run is squishy. ...they do not like squishy.

Nice clean hens I bet too. My girls are like..."Yay!! We get to be piglets and root and roll in the stuff!!" I've never seen happier hens whose faces were covered with caked on mud from playing and rooting in it so much. One hen was so muddy she was walking funny from all the mud caked up on her lower breast feathers. She though something was stuck to her and kept looking down at her chest, as if to peck it off, but couldn't figure out it was the mud!

Church food bank give-away ... hint hint

You guys remember several hundred pages back (I just know you do) where I mentioned how my one neighbors gladly took my blue eggs (for free) because their fav celebrity chef said they were somehow superior, but turned her nose up at my brown eggs later (again, for free) because they were "inferior"?
Guess who asked me about eggs the other day...

Update- also, like a bazillion posts ago, remember I mentioned that I had been feeding some eggs back to my girls to help stretch the feed? I'm still doing it and it has saved about 1/2 to 3/4 pound a day and there has been no drop in production. Doesn't seem like I'm saving very much each day but it's adding up quickly.

Wait...what was the topic again??

I can't believe it's nearing 1000 pages. I've been following from the beginning and started posting like page 60 I think?

I wouldn’t put him in the bed!!
