Monday I had 16 chicken and 1 duck eggs. 4 eggs were frozen (including the duck’s) and then I fumbled 2 good eggs while I was putting them in the carton. Needless to say I had scrambled eggs for dinner. Yesterday got 14 eggs, none of which froze.
Today I’m up to 1 (frozen) duck egg and 5 chicken eggs. I’ve noticed a couple more girls are picking up on laying which is good.
I need to clean out the coop a bit and bed them down with more straw. That cold weather should be here tomorrow and my poor birdies are sad already with a few having sore feet… I made them another sheltered area with a tarp over 2 picnic tables and a pile of dry leaves. They just have to figure it out now.
