8 eggs today. But on the sad note, I found that an owl or hawk ate one of my buff orpington pullets while I was gone today. I started with 6 pullets, 3 BO & 3 EE. Now I'm down to 1 BO & 2 EE. At least this time I know exactly what happened as I found lots of feathers and bird poop. I believe that it was a hawk. I'm surprised it attacked while the dog was outside.
 
I usually get 4 to 6 eggs a day. I went grocery shopping with my son. And he bought 18 eggs I said to him and I quote. R u kidding me I have 10 hens at home and yor buying them. Lol but to his credit he never knows if I have any available. A side note. The ones he bought were the most beautiful dark brown eggs I have ever seen sold at a major grocery store.

Those hawks just won't stop. I lost my favorite little bantam rooster yesterday. Everyone is locked inside til I can get the entire pen covered.
 
10 from 19. 8 in stages of molt and one THINKS she wants to be broody AGAIN!

Out lights run from 4am-9am. I buy cheap eggs on clearance to specifically make us hard boiled eggs. 50cents a dozen

I sell out of fresh eggs as fast as we use them and the girls lay them!
