Well, in the span of 12 hours I went from having just over 7 dozen eggs on my counter to just 3. Yup 3 eggs. My uncle is a pastor and put the word out that I had laying hens. Was asked to meet at the church last night for one customer. He wants 4 dozen every 2 weeks. Another church member stopped by the house after church this morning and took the other 3 dozen. She said she could use about 3 dozen every month if I have them available. I need to raid the hay nest tonight, it has been about 3 days, I should pull down at least another dozen. Between now and Friday I have no available eggs, those are being saved for my first and regular egg customer. I am so thankful the daylight hours are getting longer and my girls are coming back online. One of my Marans Baby started back yesterday. My sister will be happy, I will have speckled eggs for her in her carton next week. Mom, momma hen and chiquita were right, I do not have enough hens. January is not over with yet, and the girls have not only paid for their own feed, they also bought the horses 2 bags of grain as well.
