How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

@gimmie birdies Everyone says that, but mine is named mean Marlene for a reason. She's beautiful and looks very sweet but it's a ruse she's a meanie. I still like her though.

Judging from the tracks in the snow, or lack thereof, the flock spent the day huddled in the run. We have a bunch of winter 'fraidy cats. My friend in Homer AK sends us photos of her flock frolicking in the snow eating salmon carcasses. I'd throw a trout or two in there for them but with my luck, one of the 3 bears in our county would bust up the run and eat half the flock! I'm curious now, anybody ever have bear trouble with their chickens? I see on "The Worst Predator" thread 25 votes for bears. Seems like an imsurmountable problem if you get one liking chicken.
2/8 today from the old faithful Amberlinks.

2/5, and the new layer finally hit the nest box after a week of random eggs on the floor.

In 19 months, only a Coopers Hawk attack, November 2016 and she survived. I was home and heard the commotion and intervened. No problem with land crawling predators so far.
I don't toss kitchen or table scraps into pen. That will attract various predators. Only seeds and scratch grains.
Four inches of snow early this morning. I shoveled most of their pen, and managed to coax two girls out with some seeds. . Others stayed under coop. .
4/5 today. GC

I have 21 BO and got 17 eggs yesterday. I think it is good since I got them as chicks on 1 July. They seem to be doing good. First time having chickens. Starting to also eat a lot of grit..
